Metro Offers New Option for 24/7 Transit Information By Matthew Hibbard

Metro has launched another tool to help you get the MetroBus information you need whenever you need it, and this new technology is as easy as picking up your phone.

You can now dial Metro Transit Information at 314-231-2345 or 618-271-2345 at any time or day to access the new Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system. With IVR, you’re able to get real-time arrival information on your bus right over the phone. Press 1 to get started.

Then, simply enter your MetroBus stop ID number, and the automated IVR system will tell you the next three arrival times for your MetroBus route at that stop. IVR connects with the MetroBus vehicle locator system, so it’s able to provide you with real-time arrival times for your bus. Plus, the system also lets you check if there are any rider alerts impacting any of the routes serving that MetroBus stop.

MetroBus stop ID numbers can be found on every MetroBus stop sign in the region.

The IVR system is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and doesn’t require any type of internet connection. So, the next time you’re at the bus stop and you want to know when your ride is showing up, give this new resource a try.
