Demolition of a portion of the Savoy Hotel, located on Main Street between Pease and Leeland, will require closing portions of streets in downtown, and pedestrian activity will be prohibited in the area.
There will be no rail service between the UH Downtown Station and the Downtown Transit Center (DTTC) northbound platform.
Trains traveling into and out of downtown will operate from the DTTC southbound platform. Riders traveling northbound into downtown will depart the train at the DTTC southbound platform.
METRO will operate dedicated “Rail Shuttle” buses every 15 minutes for customers wishing to travel between the DTTC and UH-Downtown stations.
Regular rail service will operate between the Fannin South Station and the DTTC southbound platform.
A flyer with this information, including a map of “Rail Shuttle” bus stop locations is available on all trains.
