METRO Goes the Distance to Enhance New Bus Network

Riders will see the changes they've been asking for in less than two days as METRO implements tweaks and enhancements to the New Bus Network. Beginning Sunday, Jan. 24, 2016, METRO will modify routes and schedules based on feedback received from passengers and bus operators since launching the New Bus Network Aug. 16, 2015.

These service add-ons are expected to reduce overcrowding and improve on-time performance, and are the next phase in METRO's five-year plan to create a more comprehensive transit network with bus and rail.
