METRO | Most Park & Ride Service Suspended Through Memorial Day Holiday

METRO will continue to suspend most Park & Ride service through Memorial Day as cleanup efforts continue in the downtown area, and the Authority redirects resources to provide transportation services to crews working to restore power.  Park & Ride routes serving the Texas Medical Center will remain operational on their regular schedules.  Other service adjustments are as follows:

  • METRORail: Red Line will operate regular service from Burnett Transit Center to Fannin South Transit Center. Due to an area power outage, bus shuttles will continue to be provided from Burnett Transit Center to Northline Transit Center. Get the latest METRORail update here.
  • HOV/HOT Lanes: U.S. 290 HOV/HOT lane will remain closed through Monday, May 27.
