During this time, a bus bridge (shuttle bus between stations) will provide service between Globe Station and Cathedral Square Station to assist riders in reaching their destinations.
This construction is part of SacRT’s system-wide platform modernization effort to accommodate the new S700 low-floor light rail vehicles and improve accessibility.
