How will Express and Local bus service change in the future?
Express and Local bus service is the core of Capital Metro’s public transit system. Both services will be expanding as part of the All Systems Go plan. In fact, we expect Express and Local bus service to double in the next 20-years.
Will you be adding any new Park & Ride facilities?
Yes. We are building new Park & Ride locations to provide you with more convenient access to service.
Will buses be rerouted when Capital MetroRail service begins?
Bus service will expand to complement Capital MetroRail. At several locations, special shuttle routes will offer direct connections from trains to surrounding areas. In other cases, existing local, crosstown and feeder routes will be adjusted to serve rail stations. Proposed changes to bus routes will be finalized during the first half of 2008. Customers will have the opportunity to review and comment on final bus change proposals before they are implemented.
Will any bus service along rail routes be eliminated?
Many existing bus services along the proposed routes would continue, especially to supplement service during off-peak and night periods until rail service hours are expanded.
