EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY….. All Go St. Clair Services are Suspended
As of December 1, 2024 all Go St. Clair services have been suspended so that MRTD can conduct an in-depth route study, to better assess rider needs, preferences and usage patterns to build an even more efficient and rider friendly service.
We now have routes that can take you into St. Clair County! They start in Monroe and Randolph Counties, and head up to the Greenmount corridor, accessing lots of shopping, dining, schooling and medical resources. These routes give easy access to places like Eckert’s, SWIC, new Memorial & St. Elizabeth’s Hospitals. If you need to go elsewhere while you’re in St. Clair County, their public transit system (SCCTD) offers many options accessible from our stops on Greenmount Road.

From home to the bank, to the doctor, or a friend’s house. We can take ANYONE, for ANY REASON, ANYWHERE in our service area. Chester to Columbia, Steeleville to Valmeyer or maybe Waterloo to Sparta.
