Blue Line Summer Schedule

103 Summer Schedule

Updated 112 Schedule

Updated 211 Schedule

Blue Line ends on the East Side at 24^th Ave E and Superior St. Service to UMD temporarily paused for summer.  Riders are advised to use 103, 104, 105, 106, and 112 to access UMD.

On the west side of Duluth, Blue Line will stay on Grand avenue for the duration of the summer.

Route 103 will not serve Morely Heights, but will provide service on Snively Rd. It will express (using I-35) from Downtown to 40^th Avenue west.

Route 103 will follow the same detour as blue line from 46^th and Grand to 40^th avenue West and W Superior St.

Route 112 gets approximately a ten-minute earlier shift across the board to improve connectivity with all other routes.

211 receives approximately 1 minute shifted between a couple time points to improve route timeliness but is largely very much the same. One time point has been removed from the listings to improve route timeliness as well, but the routing has not changed just the listing of the time point.

The hand updated hand schedules for the Blue Line and Route 103 will be marked with orange to indicate they are the temporary summer versions of these schedules, which we plan to revert to more familiar routing as construction concludes in the fall. These and the other two hand schedules will be available on our service alerts webpage as well to preview.  Below is a system map reflecting the shortened Blue Line routing, along with the modified express service for route 103:

We are running the original detour below until further notice:

On Tuesday, May 5^th, East 4^th Street will be closed from 15^th Avenue East to 19^th Avenue East for the continuation of the lead water line replacement project in the City of Duluth. During this time Route 104 buses will detour as follows:

_______________________________________________________________________

 Route 104 to UMD: Buses will run regular route to East 4^th Street and 14^th Avenue East, then detour by turning right on 14^th Avenue East and follow to 2^nd Street, turn left on 2^nd Street and follow to 19^th Avenue East, turn left on 19^th Avenue East and follow to 4^th Street, turn right on 4^th Street and return to regular route.

________________________________________________________________________

 Route 104 to Downtown: Buses will run regular route to East 4^th Street and 19^th Avenue East, then detour by turning left on 19^th Avenue East and follow to 3^rd Street, turn right on 3^rd Street and follow to 14^th Avenue East, turn right on 14^th Avenue East and follow to 4^th Street, turn left on 4^th Street and return to regular route.

Passengers are directed to use alternate bus stops along 4th Street during the road clsoure.

This detour is expected to last one to two weeks, at which point the closure will move west on 4^th Street, requiring a detour adjustment.
