  • Baltlink Rider Guide-944004A2.Pdf
    WHAT IS BALTIMORELINK? BaltimoreLink is a complete overhaul and rebranding of the core transit system operating within Baltimore City and the surrounding region. Many of MTA’s current bus routes are outdated, and BaltimoreLink will improve service through a more reliable and efficient network. BaltimoreLink also includes transfer facilities, dedicated bus lanes, signal priority, and improved bus stop signs, among many other improvements. To deliver an interconnected transit network, existing MTA bus and rail services will be restructured and renamed: • CityLink: Twelve new high-frequency, color-coded bus routes will connect with each other, as well as Metro SubwayLink, Light RailLink, MARC Train, Commuter Bus, Amtrak, and other services, into one integrated transit network. • LocalLink (currently Local Bus): LocalLink routes will provide comprehensive crosstown connections and improved connections to neighborhoods and communities throughout the system. • Express BusLink (currently Express Bus): Express BusLink will include several existing Express Bus services that provide suburb-to- city connections and recently launched routes providing suburb-to-suburb connections. Typically, Express Bus routes have fewer stops and use higher speed roads. • Light RailLink (currently Light Rail): Light Rail service will operate along the same line but with improved connections to buses. • Metro SubwayLink (currently Metro Subway): This service will not change but will have improved connections to buses. baltimorelink.com | 1 BETTER BUS STOPS BALTIMORELINK RESOURCE INFORMATION To create a better rider experience by providing information you can use, the MTA will be All MTA routes will change under installing new bus stop signs throughout the BaltimoreLink.
