Metro Seeks Public Input on Proposed Route and Service Updates
September 25, 2026
Metro is inviting the public to weigh in on proposed service changes scheduled to take effect Dec. 6, 2026.
The proposed changes include:
- Adding direct midday service from Government Square to the Freestore Foodbank on Rt. 50.
- Extending Rt. 51 to Norwood/Surrey Square in response to rider feedback.
- Revising Rt. 61 service under one of two options: rerouting via Kenwood, Dawson, Miami and Euclid, or ending the route at Kenwood Mall and removing Rt. 61 service in Madeira. The Madeira Park & Ride would still be served by Rt. 2.
- Removing Rt. 10 service to Oakley Transit Center during off-peak hours and weekends. Erie Ave would still be connected to Oakley Transit Center seven days a week via Rt. 37.
- Reducing off-peak P.M. trips on Rts. 20 and 31 due to low ridership.
