You may need to allow some extra time for your evening MetroLink commutes this week due to construction.

On Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday (April 11, 13, 14, 15) from 8 p.m. through the end of service, MetroLink will operate on a single track at Union Station and Civic Center MetroLink Stations to accommodate maintenance work.

During these periods, Blue Line MetroLink trains will only operate between the Forest Park-DeBaliviere and Shrewsbury-Lansdowne I-44 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 and continue their westbound trips.
• Eastbound Blue Line passengers will need to board a Red Line train at the Forest Park-DeBaliviere Station to continue their eastbound trips.
• Red Line MetroLink passengers may experience delays of 5 minutes.
• Passengers should allow 10 minutes when transferring between Red Line and Blue Line trains.
