(Cambios efectivos el 17 de noviembre de 2025)

A fin de aumentar la eficiencia, la seguridad y el servicio para nuestros pasajeros, varias rutas primarias de MTA cambiarán a partir del 17 de noviembre. Los cambios brindarán mejor servicio para los pasajeros con conexiones más fáciles y más opciones de lugares para ir y acceso a necesidades esenciales como tiendas y citas médicas.

¿CUÁLES SON LOS CAMBIOS?
Ruta 3 – Cambio en el servicio Miller/Linden: La ruta 3 se dividirá en dos rutas separadas que eliminarán el segmento de Linden y Pierson Road de esta ruta. La nueva ruta 3 comenzará en el centro y finalizará en Sam’s Club sobre Corunna Road. La ruta solo ingresará al Genesee Valley Mall en sentido saliente y se agregarán dos (2) nuevas paradas hacia el sur a lo largo de Linden Road.

Ruta 3A – Nuevo servicio Linden/Pierson: El segmento de Linden y Pierson Road de la ruta 3 creará una ruta de servicio entrante y saliente de 30 minutos de Aldi a Sam’s Club.

Ruta 4/5 – Cambio en el servicio: La ruta recorrerá desde el centro saliendo de la ruta 4 y regresará sobre la ruta 5. Este es un cambio operativo para mejorar la eficiencia. Solo funcionará de lunes a sábado desde las 6:30 p. m. hasta el cierre y los domingos desde las 9:00 a. m. hasta el cierre.

Ruta 7/6 – Cambio en el servicio: La ruta recorrerá desde el centro saliendo de la ruta 7 y regresará sobre la ruta 6. Este es un cambio operativo para mejorar la eficiencia. Solo funcionará de lunes a sábado desde las 6:30 p. m. hasta el cierre y los domingos desde las 9:00 a. m. hasta el cierre.

Un autobús funcionará en horario vespertino y los fines de semana, igual que en la actualidad. La ruta se simplificará y ya no ingresará al Grand Mall. Además, la parada del Walmart se reubicará junto a Sam’s Club debido a cierta congestión en la parte trasera del edificio donde los autobuses necesitan desplazarse.

Ruta 11 – Cambio en el servicio Bristol/Fenton (saliente): El autobús ya no ingresará a South Flint Plaza y permanecerá sobre Fenton Road. Se establecerá un nuevo final de la línea en Kings Lane Apartments sobre Hemphill Road, al este de Fenton Road. Se agregará una parada adicional delante de la plaza cerca de Hemphill Road para que los pasajeros igual puedan acceder a la plaza. Este es un cambio operativo para mejorar la seguridad.

Ruta 13 – Cambio en el servicio: El servicio recorrerá por Pierson Road hasta Linden Road, hasta Pasadena Avenue hacia Clio Road, al norte de regreso a Pierson Road hasta Dort Highway, continuará hasta Davison Road y después hasta Belsay Road hasta el Walmart sobre Court Street y seguirá hasta el Meijer sobre Center Road.

Service Bulletin, Primary Route Changes and Free Rides (Free Rides 11/17 & 11/18)
(Changes Effective November 17, 2025)

To increase efficiency, safety, and service for our riders, several MTA Primary Routes will be changing effective November 17. The changes will provide better service for passengers with smoother connections and more options of places to go and access to essential needs such as groceries and medical appointments.

WHAT ARE THE CHANGES?

Route 3 – Miller/Linden Service Change: Route 3 will be split into two separate routes which will remove the Linden and Pierson Road segment of this route. The new Route 3 will begin downtown and end at Sam’s Club on Corunna Road. The route will only travel into the Genesee Valley Mall outbound and two (2) new stops will be added southbound along Linden Road.

Route 3A – Linden/Pierson New Service: The segment of Linden and Pierson Road from Route 3 will create a 30-minute inbound and outbound service route from Aldi’s to Sam’s Club.

Route 4/5 – Service Change: The route will travel from downtown out Route 4 and return on Route 5. This is an operational change to improve efficiency. This will only run 6:30 PM to Close, Monday through Saturday and on Sunday, 9:00 AM to Close.

Route 7/6 – Service Change: The route will travel from downtown out Route 7 and return on Route 6. This is an operational change to improve efficiency. This will only run 6:30 PM to Close, Monday through Saturday and on Sunday, 9:00 AM to Close.

Route 8 – South Saginaw Service Change: During the daytime, an additional bus will be added, totaling 3 buses. One bus will operate in the evening and on weekends as it is today. The route will be simplified and will no longer pull into the Grand Mall. Additionally, the Walmart stop will be relocated next to Sam’s Club due to semi congestion in the back of the building where the buses need to travel.

Route 11 – Bristol/Fenton Service Change (Outbound): Bus will no longer enter the South Flint Plaza and will remain on Fenton Road. A new end of the line will be established at Kings Lane Apartments on Hemphill Road, east of Fenton Road. An additional stop will be added in front of the plaza near Hemphill Road so passengers can still access the plaza. This is an operational change to improve safety.

Route 13 – Service Change: Service will travel down Pierson Road to Linden Road, down to Pasadena Avenue to Clio Road, north back to Pierson Road to Dort Highway, continue to Davison Road and then travel to Belsay Road to the Walmart on Court Street and on to the Meijer on Center Road.

Route 15 – Service Change: The redesigned route 15 will take passengers to Courtland Center, the Walmart on Court Street and will continue to travel to North Irish Road and down to Meijer in Davison Township on Lapeer Road.
