MTD bus routes changes as part of enhancement project
March 27, 2019
Stage one of Project 4 of Multimodal Corridor Enhancement Project started earlier this week, resulting in some route changes for the Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District buses. MCORE is a partnership between Champaign, Urbana, the University and MTD.
Several routes and stops will be changed during construction, which will last for three months. Currently, only southbound routes are affected.
Here are all the buses that are affected by the construction:
13/130 Silver:
North — Armory stop not functioning; South — Springfield to Goodwin to Gregory to Sixth to Pennsylvania to Lincoln, does not go down Armory.
