Rose has been riding Metro Transit to get around since 2012. She uses MetroBus to get to doctors appointments, and before the COVID-19 pandemic, to get to her classes.

You can normally find Rose on the #10 Gravois-Lindell or the #11 Chippewa, and loves that our operators are always there to get her where she needs to go. She gets her information from Metro by seeing it come up in her social media newsfeed, and by calling our transit information experts (call 314-231-2345 or text 314-207-9786).

Check out our Q&A below to learn more about Rose.
