UPDATE: MetroLink Bus Shuttles Canceled for December 17 & 18

MetroLink will be able to operate normal weekend service on Saturday, December 17, and Sunday, December 18, because the contractor for the City of St. Louis has postponed the scheduled demolition this weekend of the Forest Park Parkway bridge over the MetroLink tracks west of Kingshighway. Since MetroLink trains would not have been able to operate in the demolition zone, Metro had planned to transport MetroLink passengers via bus shuttles between the Forest Park-DeBaliviere and Central West End MetroLink Stations. Those shuttles have been canceled until a new date for the bridge demolition is scheduled.

NOTE: If you currently have details about this weekend’s MetroLink Station Shuttle operations still posted on your website, please update your website with this new information about the canceled bus shuttles or remove the previous story.

Updates on MetroLink operation can be found at metrostlouis.org in the Rider Alert section, on Twitter at @STLMetro and on Facebook at St. Louis Metro Transit. For more information, contact Metro Transit Information at 314-231-2345 or 618-271-2345, Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
