Find active service alerts

As METRO navigates the coronavirus pandemic, bus service has been and continues to be affected daily. Because of a need to re-allocate resources, some routes have been temporarily suspended, and yet they still appear on the system map. Because of ongoing pandemic-related staff absences, bus schedules have been adjusted, particularly on weekends. To get the most accurate information, check regular bus maps and schedules first, then click here to find all of the active, ongoing service alert information tied to that route; shorter term service alerts that may also be in effect can always be found at the top of this page, in the red bar. Your patience is appreciated as we continue adjusting service in response to the pandemic. The goal is to keep essential public transit service in operation while protecting public health.

Where Does METRO Connect Airport-Port-Shorter College Zone Operate?

The METRO Connect Airport-Port-Shorter College Zone is a ride-hailing service pilot project (active starting Monday, May 11, 2020) and connects riders near the temporarily suspended Routes 7 Shorter College, 12 Clinton Center/Airport and 20 Hanger Hill/College Station to other METRO routes.

METRO Connect Airport-Port-Shorter College Zone vehicles operate within the zone boundaries and can provide riders a direct ride to the River Cities Travel Center, which is within the zone and its main “point of interest,” for connections to other METRO routes.
