RICHMOND, TX –  Fort Bend County Public Transportation Services will be closed on Monday, September 15, 2008, due to the uncertainty of passable roadways in portions of the County and Harris County.  All commuter routes which include the TREK Express to Greenway Plaza and the Galleria and the Fort Bend County Express to the Texas Medical Center will not operate on Monday.  Demand Response services within Fort Bend County will be closed as well.
