Metro Transit is introducing a new version of our online Trip Planner to provide a more accessible resource for our riders and ensure everyone can easily plan their Metro trips. This new version will replace our current Trip Planner, which will be discontinued at the end of April.

The new Trip Planner is powered by Google Transit, which has all of our train and bus schedules, rider alerts, and can track real-time MetroBus information. To plan your trip, enter your starting point and destination, and when you want to travel. The itinerary will show you step-by-step instructions for your commute. Any rider alerts potentially impacting your trip will be displayed under your route, and the color of the trip times can help you see the status of your bus:

• Green: On schedule, updating in real-time
• Red: Delayed, updating in real-time
• Black: Not updating in real-time, schedule time is displayed

Transit app is another convenient option to not only plan you trip, but also pay for your fare, view schedules and check out the real-time status of your bus – all from your mobile device. Download Transit today.
