COMMUTER BUS SERVICE TRAVELING TO TEXAS MEDICAL CENTER TO CEASE

November 14, 2017

 

 

Fort Bend County, TX-  At the request of the Texas Medical Center, Fort Bend County will cease its commuter bus service route traveling to the Texas Medical Center campus effective March 6, 2009.  This service was first offered last year in partnership between the County and the Medical Center with pick-up locations offered at University of Houston-Sugar Land and at the First Colony AMC Theatre.

Beginning February 16, 2009 through March 6, 2009 the County will begin operating this route on a reduced schedule, meaning that some of the regular pick-up times will be cancelled.   Please CLICK HERE to view the attached schedule for the reduced pick-up times.

County Judge Bob Hebert stated, ” We knew going in that this was a test-bed project for the Texas Medical Center and I’m sorry the numbers didn’t work as well as they had hoped. We’ll keep working with them to find a formula that can provide a positive cost-benefit for them so hopefully we can reinitiate this valuable service in the near future”

Fort Bend County is continuing the operation of the TREK Express service from Sugar Land to Greenway Plaza.  Interested riders can transfer to Houston Metro’s West Bellfort Park and Ride located at 11415 Roark Road, at West Bellfort, with a final destination of the Texas Medical Center.  The TREK Express Greenway route serves both the University of Houston Sugar Land and First Colony AMC Theatre parking lots. Cost for the TREK service from Sugar Land to the West Bellfort lot is $1.00 per person each way.

Passengers with Fort Bend Express tickets can seek a refund for unused tickets from the Texas Medical Center through May 8, 2009.  After May 8, 2009, no tickets will be refunded.  To request a refund, contact the Customer Relations Department with The Texas Medical Center at 713-791-6161.
