A brief description of the program:
For full-time students, benefits-eligible faculty and staff, and full-time employees of qualified vendors, the University’s fully subsidized Metro pass allows recipients to make use of three Metro routes designed specifically for our various campuses and community. • #1 Gold - provides service connecting the Medical School with the Danforth Campus. This route also serves downtown Clayton and various shopping plazas. • #2 Red - has stops near the South 40 residential halls and provides service to neighborhoods south of campus and nearby grocery and retail stores. This route also connects WU's North Campus facility with the Mallinckrodt Center on the Danforth Campus. • Green Line - connects the Danforth Campus with the 560 Building, University City and surrounding neighborhoods that have University owned apartment buildings. The University also provides a "Danforth Campus/South 40 Circulator"; that provides shuttle services from the MetroLink stations at Skinker and Forest Park Parkway and Big Bend and Forest Park Parkway to various locations around the Danforth Campus and the South 40. A “Safe Ride Home” program has also been instated, allowing for door-to-door service for those students who choose to take advantage of it after dark.
