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. Construction has begun. 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
Upgraded amenities at bus stops
