Metro Transit during Construction

Metro Transit bus service will be maintained through the construction zone for the duration of the project.  Construction activities will require periodic and sometimes extended detours of some routes, especially for buses that normally turn onto or off East Washington Avenue at intersections within the work zone.  Information about bus service can be obtained from the "Detours" section on the Metro Transit web site at http://www.mymetrobus.com or from flyers available on the buses.  Please check the website often for the latest transit information.

Stage 1 of construction will maintain the current bus stops on East Washington Avenue at Second Street, Fourth Street, Sixth/Winnebago Streets, North/Milwaukee Streets, Pawling Street, Oak Street, and westbound at McCormick Avenue.  The bus stops at Fifth Street will be closed at the start of construction.  Stage 1 construction will also require Route 4 to detour heading towards the South Transfer Point, using Fourth Street instead of Fifth Street between East Washington Avenue and Winnebago Street.  A temporary bus stop will be placed on Fourth Street.

Stage 2 of construction will maintain the current bus stops on East Washington Avenue at Second Street, Fourth Street, Sixth Street westbound, and North Street westbound.  Temporary bus stops will be placed at Milwaukee Street eastbound, East Johnson Street, and Marquette Street.  There will be no other stop locations along East Washington Avenue in the construction zone.  The westbound bus stop on Milwaukee Street at East Washington Avenue will also be closed during this stage of construction.  Stage 2 construction will require Route 4 to continue its detour heading towards the South Transfer Point, using Fourth Street instead of Fifth Street between East Washington Avenue and Winnebago Street.  A temporary bus stop will be placed on Fourth Street.  Route 4 heading towards the North Transfer Point will also detour along Fourth Street instead of using Winnebago Street to East Washington Avenue.  Route 4 heading towards the North Transfer Point will also be required to detour off of Oak Street between East Washington Avenue and Commercial Avenue.  The alternative might be along McCormick Avenue - but if this is not available, buses will need to use East Johnson Street and/or North Street to travel between East Washington Avenue and Commercial Avenue.  Limited closures of Milwaukee Street will require period detours of Routes 5, 9, 14, and 15.

Information for Stages 3-5 will be posted later as construction progresses.
