Unfortunately, no. But there are a couple of buses.

No Metrolink stop, but there are buses that connect with some Metrolink stations. The page bus (94) and Page Limited (194) run to the Wellston station. The Page Limited is like an express bus -- only runs M-F on a rush hour schedule.



The #33 Dorset-Lackland runs to the Rock Road station roughly along St. Chas Rock Road/Lacklant, Dorsett, and Fee Fee, and then up and down McKelvey. It's hard to describe so look at it on the Metro site if it may fit your needs. It is 7 days a week, about hourly, but some periods at 30 minutes.



There is also an Earth City bus hat hits some of Maryland Heights. It runs clockwise in the AM and counterclockwise in the PM, very roughly doing an I-270, 370, Earth City Expresway/Riverport/I-70, I-170 loop. It is seven days a week with very limited weekends.

You could commute from the metro east but you would be putting a lot of miles your your rig. I'd assume that the traffic would ease up quite a bit once you get over the river (as you would be going opposite traffic). If you take a job in MH, I'd suggest at least looking at homes in the area. There are some nice neighborhoods with homes in the 100's - 200's that are affordable to most.



You could also look for homes out the Page extention, but you won't find anything like soulard there cept maybe historic St. Charles...

I would probably do what bep235 suggests.



But in case you don't want to:



All the maryland height buses couple with the lambert metrolink line:



94,194 at Wellston



33 at St. Charle's rock road



It would be probably be a longer commute from Soulard than if you lived near one of the metro link stations. The closer you live to Wellston or Rock Road the better probably.

So you think it would actually be faster to live in Fairview heights and take the metro link/buses to Maryland Heights as opposed to driving from Soulizzle?





Also, the $60/mo pass for Metrolink cover the Metrobus as well, correct?

Check a map... could you take 270 over the chain of rocks bridge? I don't know two hoots about the metro east.....



Metro pass covers both... but it would take a long time to commute....

If you want to live somewhere urban, why not somewhere around the UCity Loop or Skinker-Deb? The commute will be far less to Maryland Heights than the Metro East. Maybe I just don't understand the excitement that the Metro East is, but yeah. Just my two cents.
