MetroLink Work Scheduled April 6-12

Customers are encouraged to allow a little extra time for their commutes next week as maintenance and construction work on the MetroLink system may result in brief delays for some Red Line and Blue Line MetroLink passengers. Some passengers may also need to board trains from the opposite platform during this work. To accommodate crews next week, MetroLink will operate on a single track at these stations:

 

  • Clayton MetroLink Station
  • Forsyth MetroLink Station
  • University City-Big Bend MetroLink Station
  • Skinker MetroLink Station
  • Forest Park-DeBaliviere MetroLink Station
  • Delmar Loop MetroLink Station

 

On Monday through Thursday (April 6-9) from 8:00 p.m. until the end of service, MetroLink will operate on a single track at the University City-Big Bend, Skinker, Delmar Loop and Forest Park-DeBaliviere MetroLink Stations.

  • Passengers boarding MetroLink at these stations should look for signs designating which platform is open during this period. Passengers traveling in BOTH directions will have to board MetroLink trains from the DESIGNATED platforms.
  • Blue Line and Red Line customers may experience delays of 5 to 10 minutes.   

On Friday (April 10) from 7:00 p.m. until the end of service, and Saturday and Sunday (April 11 & 12) from the beginning of service until the end of service, MetroLink will operate on a single track at the Clayton and Forsyth MetroLink Stations.
