Union Station

The stairway and sidewalk on the south side of Clark Avenue will close beginning June 17 to accommodate construction work at the Union Station MetroLink Station.

MetroLink passengers will not be able to use the stairway to access the MetroLink platform, and will instead need to use the stairs and elevator located on the west side of the Union Station MetroLink Station during this closure.

Passengers who normally use the Union Station MetroLink Station should consider using the Civic Center MetroLink Station while the stairway and sidewalk are closed to minimize any delays.

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings from 8PM until after revenue service MetroLink will conduct a single-track at Union Station and Civic Center Stations.

During the single-track operation:

o Blue Line Trains will operate from Forest Park Station to Shrewsbury Station.

o Westbound Blue Line passengers traveling between the Fairview Heights Station and the Central West End Station should board a Red Line train to Forest Park Station to connect with a Blue Line train.

o Red Line service may experience delays up to 5 minutes.

o Customers should allow an additional 10 minutes when transferring to the Blue Line.
