Valley Metro services are operating under different hours throughout the holiday season.

On Christmas Eve, Valley Metro’s bus, light rail and streetcar services will operate on its standard weekday schedule, but its Express/RAPID bus will be unavailable to riders.

On New Year’s Eve, buses will operate on a weekday schedule, but light rail and street car services will extend their operating hours into 2 a.m.

Come Christmas and New Year’s Day, bus, light rail and streetcar transportation will operate on a Sunday schedule. That means the first full trip of the day for light rail will be at 5 a.m., and the last full trip will be at 11 p.m.

Valley Metro’s customer service line will be closed on Christmas and New Year’s Day.
