Improvements Are Coming Soon
As part of the METRONow plan we're bringing a series of improvements designed ensure METRO is the first option our community chooses for their transportation needs. Look for construction to begin very soon! Some of the enhancements you'll see include:
- Roadway repairs and street reconstruction, including upgraded driveways
- New or improved sidewalks along and / or near the route
- Improved accessibility along the route with safer crossings and new ramps for wheelchair and stroller access
- Bus shelters with lighting for improved safety at most stops
