How to Ride

Metro is Your Transit System, at Your Service

Metro Transit is a world-class transportation system, always at your service to help you live, work and play where you want, when you want. It’s a modern, efficient public amenity — a resource and investment engineered for your comfort and convenience.

Many people think of Metro as a convenient way to get to and from work or school. But it is also a great way to explore everything the region has to offer. Learn how to explore St. Louis here.

Many people also think of Metro Transit as only buses, vans and trains, but it’s much more. Metro Transit also includes MetroLink stations, Transit Centers, parking lots, bus stops and shelters, even public art. You can think of Metro as a complete system — all designed so you can park, take a train or bus, change from one to the other and even change back again, using any combination of travel that helps get you where you’re going – safely, comfortably and conveniently. Enjoy the ride.
