Metro Transit

Happy 250th birthday, USA! Here are a few things to know this holiday weekend:

🎆 If you’re taking in the fireworks in St. Paul, the METRO Gold Line and METRO B Line stop just a few blocks from Cathedral Hill and have trips past midnight. Gold Line riders can find free parking at stations in Woodbury, Oakdale, and Sun Ray.

🎆 Headed to downtown Minneapolis for Taste of Minnesota? Multiple routes can get you there, including the METRO E Line, METRO D Line and METRO C Line.

🎆 Buses are replacing trains on the METRO Blue Line and on the METRO Green Line west of West Bank Station. Replacement buses run every 15 minutes and stop at or near light rail stations.

🎆 Schedules look a little different on Friday, July 3, and on Independence Day, and some detours will be in place due to events. Plan ahead by visiting our website.

Thank you for riding with us!

Heading to U.S. Bank Stadium tonight for the R&B Tour? Here are a few friendly reminders:

🚍 Buses are replacing Blue Line trains from Mall of America to Target Field, stopping at or near every station every 15 minutes. Replacement buses take more time than trains, so we encourage you to give yourself extra time. Park & Rides at the 30th Avenue and Fort Snelling stations are open.

🤳 To save time and money, purchase an All-Day Pass through our mobile ticketing app. With an All-Day Pass, you can skip the ticket line after the event. At Blue Line bus stops, tickets can also be purchased using a QR code.

🚉 The Green Line is operating as usual, and U.S. Bank Stadium is also served by multiple other bus routes with service past 11 p.m., including the METRO D Line.

🏁 If you are taking transit home after the concert, please get in line as soon as possible. Staff will be on hand to help direct you to the right location.

Thank you for riding with us!

Let the work begin!

Track and station repairs got underway across the METRO Blue Line corridor on Monday, the start of a 52-day effort to modernize and improve the 22-year-old light rail line.

While buses are replacing trains, we’re sprucing up stations, repairing bridges, and installing new signal equipment, among other updates.

To help you through this disruptive construction, signs and staff are out across the corridor pointing the way to replacement buses arriving at or near stations every 15 minutes.

Thank you for riding with us, and thank you for your patience as we care for your system!
