Metro Transit Schedule Changes Could Affect Stillwater Commuters

STILLWATER, MN — Riders commuting from Stillwater to Minneapolis on Metro Transit buses could see changes to their usual schedules starting Saturday.

The transit service said it will make updates March 26 to many of its routes throughout the Twin Cities metro, based on its analysis of ridership trends and resources.

No changes are planned for the Route 294 Express bus, which connects downtown Stillwater to St. Paul. But those who usually transfer to a Route 94 bus in St. Paul to reach Minneapolis could be affected by the upcoming changes.

Metro Transit said it plans to adjust trip times for Route 94 westbound service “to better match actual conditions” in downtown Minneapolis.
