The Miami Metro Green Route bus stop currently located at College Avenue and Sycamore Street will be relocated to Sycamore Street and Lincoln Avenue beginning at 7:04 a.m. Monday, Jan. 25. The last time the Green Route will stop at College and Sycamore will be at 9:34 p.m. Friday, Jan. 22.

The new stop is closer to Hawk's Landing where many passengers live. The move means these passengers will now not have to cross Sycamore to use the Green Route. The location of the new stop is also now on a level sidewalk with an accessible curb cut.

Questions can be directed to any Green Route driver or by calling (513) 529-2224 or (513) 529-8375, or by visiting http://www.muohio.edu/parking.
