This Bus Stop is Being Eliminated

Metro has recently begun its Bus Stop Evaluation Program, an effort that will examine every bus stop in the Missouri MetroBus system. The goal of the program is to help make the existing system more efficient, better for customers, and more sustainable. Metro will relocate or even eliminate bus stops, as necessary, to provide consistent spacing of bus stops and to increase service speeds.

Metro's effort with this program is commendable and long overdue. Poor stop spacing and slow service speeds have long been a complaint of MetroBus riders. Metro's outreach and effort to seek public comment, however, has been disappointing.
