MetroLink Work Scheduled January 31

Update: Track maintenance scheduled for Feb. 1 was cancelled due to inclement weather. 

MetroLink Blue Line passengers may experience brief delays next weekend (Jan. 31) in order to accommodate routine inspections, so customers are encouraged to allow a little extra time for their commutes. Some customers will need to arrive earlier than normal if they are boarding MetroLink at one of three Blue Line stations that weekend. The affected MetroLink stations are:

  • Shrewsbury-Lansdowne I-44 MetroLink Station
  • Sunnen MetroLink Station
  • Maplewood-Manchester MetroLink Station

On Saturday and (Jan. 31) from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., MetroLink will operate on a single track at the Sunnen and Maplewood-Manchester MetroLink Stations. Trains traveling eastbound from the Shrewsbury-Lansdowne I-44, Sunnen and Maplewood-Manchester Stations will operate 5 minutes ahead of schedule due to the single-track operation. Blue Line customers may experience delays of 5 to 10 minutes. Red Line service will not be impacted by this work.

Updates on MetroLink operations can be found at www.metrostlouis.org in the Rider Alert section.
