GOLD BRT TO OPEN IN 2025
The METRO Gold Line – the state’s first Bus Rapid Transit line to operate primarily within bus-only lanes – will open on March 22, 2025, project leaders have announced. The new line will connect Woodbury to downtown Saint Paul.
The Gold Line is one of three new BRT lines Metro Transit will open next year, expanding the region’s network of METRO lines that provide reliable, all-day service and stations with amenities like heated and lit shelters. The METRO B Line, which will largely replace Route 21, is scheduled to open on June 14, 2025, and the METRO E Line, which will largely replace Route 6, is scheduled to open in December 2025.
By the end of next year, the region will have eight BRT lines in service and several more in various stages of planning, design, and engineering.
