In response to the state's peacetime emergency, Metropolitan Council critical services continue to be available, though our facilities are closed to walk-in traffic and many staff are working remotely.... During the governor's order on outdoor-only seating for restaurants, no SAC determination is needed for new or additional outdoor seating.... all Metro Mobility and Transit Link rides are for essential needs only.... Face coverings are required on board all Metro Mobility and Transit Link buses.... Metro Transit is operating a reduced service schedule. Trips should be for essential purposes only.... Customers will board and exit vehicles through the rear door.... the operator will display 'Next Bus Please'
