MetroLink Work Scheduled December 2-6

MetroLink customers may need to allow a little extra time for their evening commutes next week (Dec. 2-6) as construction work continues in Downtown St. Louis.

 Monday through Friday, December 2-6, from 6 p.m. through the end of service each night, MetroLink trains will operate on one track only at the Laclede’s Landing and Convention Center Stations. *

•  After 6 p.m. Dec. 2 through Dec. 6, Blue Line MetroLink trains will only operate between the Shrewsbury-Lansdowne I-44 and Forest Park-DeBaliviere MetroLink Stations.
• Westbound Blue Line passengers will need to board a Red Line train between the Fairview Heights and Central West End MetroLink Stations, and travel to the Forest Park-DeBaliviere Station to transfer to a Blue Line train to continue their westbound trips.
• Eastbound Blue Line riders in Missouri will need to board a Red Line train at the Forest Park-DeBaliviere Station to continue their eastbound trips.
• Red Line passengers may experience delays of 5 minutes.
• Passengers should allow an extra 10 minutes to transfer between the Red Line and the Blue Line.

 *The 8^th & Pine Station is not impacted by the single-track operation next week because it remains closed until further notice due to construction work occurring there. Metro Transit will announce when the reopening date is confirmed. We had hoped to reopen the 8^th & Pine Station around December 1^st but the work continues at that station. A free 8^th & Pine Station bus shuttle operates between the Civic Center Station and the 8^th & Pine Station approximately every 20 minutes.
