New bus line launches in Downtown Fort Worth, replacing Molly the Trolley
A new bus line is launching in Fort Worth, helping visitors and residents alike get around Cowtown. The Blue Line is replacing Molly the Trolley, which will officially end its services on June 7, according to Trinity Metro. The Blue Line will begin its service the following day, June 8. "Much like the Orange Line, Trinity Metro's Blue Line will provide a necessary connection for residents and tourists to some of Fort Worth's iconic destinations," said Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker. "The color-coded lines are very appealing for riders and the overall look raises the bar for an outstanding transit experience." The Blue Line will connect downtown shops, dining and hotels and have stops near the Fort Worth Convention Center, Fort Worth Water Gardens and Sundance Square. The free service will be available daily from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. with stops every seven minutes.

Plan ahead: TRAX Red Line to be rerouted during ‘MexTour' event at Rice Eccles Stadium
SALT LAKE CITY () — On Saturday, June 7, the Mexican national soccer team will be making a rare visit to the Beehive State against Switzerland at Rice Eccles Stadium. But if you were planning on making use of the TRAX's Red Line train to make it to the stadium, you'll need to adjust your travel plans. The TRAX line, which typically runs up 400 South to Rice Eccles Stadium on the University of Utah campus, will and along Main Street in downtown Salt Lake City. This temporary reroute could cause significant delays of up to 45 minutes to the commute, the University of Utah warned. 6 Utah cities ranked among the best 250 places to live in the U.S. — and Salt Lake didn't make the cut To make up for the lack of trains, UTA plans to increase services for bus routes 1, 2, and 4 to help passengers traveling to the University of Utah. Passengers will be encouraged to take the Red Line to Gallivan Plaza Station and transfer to any of the three bus lines to reach the stadium in time for the game. The Red Line closure will allow for UTA maintenance crews to perform maintenance near the Rice-Eccles Stadium station, including at the S-Curve to the University of Utah. The closure and reroute are expected to be in place until Aug. 17. However, normal services will temporarily resume over the July 4 weekend to help accommodate events on the University of Utah campus.
