MetroBus Route Changes Sunday Due to Rock ‘n’ Roll St. Louis Marathon and Half Marathon Events
Return to Blog
The sounds of all kinds of music will be in the air all around St. Louis this Sunday, October, 21, 2012 as the Rock ‘n’ Roll St. Louis Marathon and Half Marathon Series comes to town featuring live bands and cheerleaders on every mile of the run.
The second annual event will have a major impact on Missouri MetroBus routes in Downtown St. Louis, Midtown St. Louis near the Fox Theatre, and Tower Grove Park area and points in between.
Since so many streets will be closed to accommodate the runners, 19 MetroBus routes will be rerouted. MetroBus customers should allow extra travel time for their commutes Sunday to allow for the detours. The Grand MetroLink Station will be OPEN but will not be served by the #70 Grand on Sunday morning. Passengers will need to board buses at the Central West End MetroLink Station from 6 a.m. until 11 a.m.
The reroutes are:
