The St. Clair County Transit District will transport Red Line MetroLink customers by MetroBus from the College MetroLink Station to the Shiloh-Scott MetroLink Station after 8 p.m. tonight, tomorrow night, Wednesday night, Thursday night and again on Sunday night. MetroLink trains will not operate between the College and Shiloh-Scott Stations from 8 p.m. until the end of service each night so crews can perform work on the tracks. Westbound passengers may experience 20-25 minute delays and eastbound passengers should allow for 5-10 minute delays. This light rail project will take several weeks to complete.

SERVICE DETAILS
Starting at 8 p.m. on July 30, July 31, August 1, August 2 and August 5, bus shuttles operated by the St. Clair County Transit District will transport MetroLink passengers between the College MetroLink Station to the Shiloh-Scott MetroLink Station.

Westbound Red Line passengers from Shiloh-Scott MetroLink Station will need to board a shuttle bus to travel to the College MetroLink Station. From there, they can board a train to continue west. They should allow an extra 20-25 minutes for their commutes.

Eastbound Red Line passengers will exit the train at the College MetroLink Station and board a shuttle bus to continue their trip to the Shiloh-Scott MetroLink Station. They may experience 5-10 delays during the bus shuttle operation.

Blue Line service will not be impacted.
