The Bus Stops Here!

August 04, 2010

The Metro has added a bus stop at the Midwest Genealogy Center!  The new Metro #286-Silver Route provides Tuesday and Thursday service from five other points in Independence, including the Independence MetroCenter, Olde Oak Tree Apartments, Noland Road & 39th, Social Security Administration, and Centerpoint Medical Center. Transfer options are available at the Independence MetroCenter, at the #284-Purple Route at 35th & Noland Rd. (Old Oak Tree Apartments), and at the #183-Green Route at Centerpoint.

The buses for this route have been fitted with two wheelchair spaces and will run every 90 minutes from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Bus fare will be $1.50, the same as other Metro routes; all Metro passes, valid transfers, and the summer Tranz Tag for teens will be accepted on the #286.
