CapMetro’s Summer Service Changes take effect Memorial Day Weekend, May 26, 2024

The routine changes will help the agency improve on-time performance and efficiency

Austin, TX —

CapMetro is adjusting service this summer beginning May 26, 2024, as a part of the triannual service change. The agency makes three service changes per year based on shifts in how customers are using its services and to improve the overall riding experience. 

This adjustment will include transitioning University of Texas routes to summer-level service beginning June 6, 2024 and suspending school trips from select routes beginning May 26, 2024. During the school year, select bus routes are extended during limited times to pick-up and drop-off students and school staff close to their campuses. The following routes will suspend these school trip for the summer and resume in the fall: 

  • Route 4 (7th Street) to Austin High School & the Liberal Arts and Science Academy (LASA) 
  • Route 217 217 (Montopolis Feeder) to Allison Elementary School  
  • Route 315 (Ben White) to Small Middle School 
  • Route 333 (William Cannon) to Perez Elementary School 
  • Route 337 (Koenig/Colony Park) to LBJ Early College High School

In addition, the summer service change will make minor changes to two separate bus routes, Route 5 and Route 350, to improve reliability and the overall on-time performance.
