Service Bulletins

RideKC Micro Transit and routes in Johnson County, Kan., will change this year as part of several pilot programs to improve public transportation.

Starting on Tuesday, Feb. 15, until further notice, several RideKC bus routes will detour for utility work at Petticoat and Main.

Due to the construction occurring around the Plaza, eastbound 47 Broadway and 401 Metcalf-Plaza will detour starting Tuesday, January 25.

On Monday, Dec. 13, until further notice, several bus routes in the Crown Center area will detour from 27th & Main.

Due to construction on 11th and 12th street between Broadway and Washington, RideKC route 9 9th Street, 11 Northeast-Westside, and 12 12th Street will detour.

Effective Wednesday, June 30, Main MAX will detour for utility construction on Main Street. From 47th Street to 20th Street, Main MAX will use Broadway instead of Main and Grand. This reroute may remain in effect through 2022.

We are currently experiencing a sharp increase in paratransit trips. Social distancing in vehicles to stop the spread of COVID-19 and a shortage of drivers during the pandemic has caused our contractors to struggle to make service consistently. Many of you are experiencing long wait times during peak hours.

Fares for 199 Micro Transit in Kansas City, Kansas, and 499 Micro Transit in Johnson County will be reinstated beginning on Monday, November 9, 2020.

Printed bus schedules and maps are now available by request only. RideKC will mail you schedules: just call or email us. 

As the Kansas City region begins to slowly reopen, RideKC has created a tentative framework to restore service as the region weathers the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Central to our plan is connecting people to opportunities, and ensuring access for jobs and services at hospitals, other medical care, pharmacies, grocery and food services, and other essential services.
