Work is progressing on the Secure Platform Plan, and later this month, crews will begin adding new fencing, fare gates, cameras and other infrastructure to the Brentwood I-64 and Forsyth MetroLink Stations.

Please note that work at these two stations requires temporary closures of walkways that may change how you use these stations during construction.

Brentwood I-64 Station

July 28 Update: East Entrance to Station Temporarily Closes

The east entrance to the Brentwood I-64 MetroLink Station is temporarily closed until mid-August for construction. During the closure, some riders may need to use a shuttle van to complete their trips:

• Leaving Brentwood I-64 on MetroLink: During the closure, riders on the east side of the station will need to board a Metro Shuttle Van to reach the west entrance to the MetroLink platform (by Dierbergs). Riders can board the Metro Shuttle Van at a stop near the parking facility.
• Arriving at Brentwood I-64 on MetroLink: During the closure, riders connecting to destinations on the east side of the station will need to use the walkway to Dierbergs/Brentwood Pointe to board a Metro Shuttle Van to reach Musick Memorial Drive and the east side of the Brentwood I-64 Station.

The east entrance is expected to reopen the week of August 18-22.

Forsyth Station

Starting on Monday, July 21, the accessible ramp at the Forsyth Station will temporarily close for several weeks due to construction work.

During this period, riders traveling to or from Forsyth Station who require an elevator or an accessible ramp will need to use an ADA Shuttle during the construction work.

The ADA Shuttle will transport riders between the Richmond Heights and Forsyth Stations:

• Traveling to Forsyth Station: MetroLink riders will exit their train at the Richmond Heights Station and board the ADA shuttle to the Forsyth Station.
• Traveling from Forsyth Station: Riders will board the ADA Shuttle at the Forsyth Station and ride to the Richmond Heights Station to connect with MetroLink.

The ADA Shuttle is being scheduled to match train arrival times to minimize delays for riders during the construction work. Both ADA walkways are scheduled to reopen in August.
