River Road construction to close three bus stops

The city of West Lafayette has asked CityBus to close three bus stops for a construction project on River Road. The bus stops are located along the west side of River Road between Dehart and Robinson streets and are served by CityBus route "5 Happy Hollow."

The three bus stops will close on Tuesday, September 21st. Riders, particularly those living at Williamsburg on the Wabash Apartments, will be affected by the bus stop closures.

While construction is in process, route 5 will detour through the Williamsburg on the Wabash Apartment complex, serving temporary bus stops at buildings 1301-1312, the clubhouse/leasing office, and on the northeast corner of River Rd. at Robinson St.

The city is beginning work on an extension of the Wabash Heritage Trail along the west side of River Rd.

CityBus regrets the inconvenience this will cause for our customers.
