Safety & Connecting Workers to Essential Jobs Remain Top Focus
METRO will continue to operate following a modified schedule that connects workers to their jobs and other riders who rely on public transportation for essentials trips to destinations like grocery stores and pharmacies. All Park & Ride routes, except those serving the Texas Medical Center, remain temporarily suspended. HOV/ HOT lanes will remain closed.
Safety of the Authority's customers and employees remains the top priority. Extra buses have been added on routes with high demand to allow riders to spread out on vehicles. Additionally METRO continues expanded cleanings of vehicles, platforms and shelters.
