Plymouth Metrolink Route Changes Go Into Effect On September 12

Press release from the City of Plymouth:

August 27, 2020

Since March, Plymouth Metrolink has operated with reduced services due to COVID-19. On Saturday, Sept. 12, Metrolink will implement a service increase to restore services through redesigned routes.

Changes in the new service schedule include:

• Route 747 will begin to serve Station 73 and more Plymouth businesses. However, Route 747 will no longer serve Carlson Towers.
• Routes 774 and 772 will be combined into a single route (774), which will serve both former Route 774 and 772 areas.
• Routes 776 and 790 will operate at reduced schedules.
• Route 795 will operate at its original pre-pandemic schedule.

New schedules are published at the Metrolink schedule and map webpage and will be available on buses and at transit stations. Metrolink will continue to closely monitor demand and rider feedback to adjust service as needed.

New Dial-A-Ride Hours
The redesigned service plan also includes the addition of Dial-A-Ride weekend service, beginning Saturday, Sept. 12.

In addition to regular hours of 6 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, new weekend Dial-A-Ride hours are:

• 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturdays
• 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sundays
