MCTS bus routes serving campus to change starting Aug. 24

Starting Sunday, Aug. 24, Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) will be making changes to several routes, affecting some routes servicing UWM.

A major change: Route 49U serving Brown Deer Park & Ride has been eliminated. Instead, Route 68 will provide service to UWM from the Park & Ride.

On Aug. 24, every local route that starts or ends on UWM’s campus will do so along Kenwood Boulevard between Maryland Avenue and Downer Avenue.

In addition, U-Buses will start or end their trips on Downer Avenue and Hampshire Street, just north of Kenwood Boulevard. MCTS plans to use existing bus stops.

Look for MCTS signage around current bus stops, notifying riders of any route changes.

For more details, please see this MCTS webpage on service changes.
