Veterans Day Parade Detours Downtown Tomorrow

Heads up, downtown riders! Tomorrow, Wednesday, November 11, Tulsa honors our veterans with the annual Veterans Day Parade, and the parade route runs right through the heart of downtown. From 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., Routes 140, 250 and 700 will be on detour while streets are closed for staging and the parade itself.

Stops That Will Not Be Serviced

While the detour is in place, buses will not stop at the downtown stops below. If one of these is your usual stop, plan to catch your bus at the nearest open stop along the detour instead.

• 7608 at 3rd St and Boulder Ave, eastbound

• 7656 at 3rd St and Boulder Ave, westbound

• 8299 at Boston Ave and 4th St, northbound

• 8298 at Boston Ave and 6th St, northbound

• 8242 at Cincinnati Ave and 5th St, southbound

• 8243 at Cincinnati Ave and 6th St, southbound

• 8987 at Detroit Ave and 4th St, northbound

• 7013 at 2nd St and Boulder Ave, eastbound (not serviced by Route 250, other routes will still stop here)

Once the parade wraps up and the streets reopen, all routes will go back to their normal service.

Holiday Service on Veterans Day

MetroLink buses will still be running on Veterans Day, so you can count on your ride. Denver Avenue Station and Midtown Station will both be closed for the holiday, so give yourself a little extra time if you normally stop inside either station before your trip.

The parade is one of the best ways to say thank you to the men and women who have served, and riding MetroLink downtown means you can skip the hunt for parking and enjoy the celebration. Plan your trip in the GoPass app and keep an eye on metrolinkok.org for real time updates. We will see you on board!
