You Asked, We Delivered

In 2020, Hamilton County voters placed their confidence in Metro by approving Issue 7, which reinvests approximately $130 million annually into Metro to support service improvements and innovations. The bold five-year Reinventing Metro strategy provides a roadmap to help Metro reinvent transit to better serve the community.

2024 marked the midpoint of the implementation of Reinventing Metro and it has already delivered an immense impact across our community. We’re excited about the progress so far and the improvements ahead in 2025 and beyond.

REAL RIDERS, REAL STORIES

At Metro, impact is more than a word—it’s about the people in our community who experience it firsthand. We invite you to explore the stories that showcase why we come together: to build a better, more connected region where everyone can thrive.

THANKS TO YOU

Metro is leading the nation in post-pandemic ridership recovery

“Our ridership is at 117% of where it was before COVID-19, while most transit agencies nationwide are at about 70-80% ridership. We believe our success reflects the community’s trusts in us to get them where they need to go and their excitement about the improvements so far and those yet to come.”
