OKC Streetcar service interruption planned for March 25 & 26
Oklahoma City Streetcar will temporarily suspend service on March 25, starting at 10 p.m. until approximately 4 p.m. on March 26, to allow crews to perform work related to the OKC New Arena. EMBARK will provide a bus shuttle service to streetcar stops starting at 6 a.m. on March 26.
Street closure
All lanes on Reno Avenue from South E.K. Gaylord Boulevard to Robinson Avenue will temporarily be closed.
Streetcar Bus Shuttle March 26
To ensure riders can still travel conveniently through downtown, EMBARK will provide buses every 25 minutes along the OKC Streetcar Downtown Loop during regular operating hours. Streetcar rides are free through July 5, and no ticket is required to board.
Riders can board the shuttle at any of the 22 streetcar platforms along the route, with the exception of the Arena stop on Reno. Head signs will read “OKC Streetcar Service – Downtown Loop.” Real-time tracking will not be available, so please allow extra travel time. Please note the Bricktown Loop will not run during this service suspension, only the Downtown Loop.
Stay informed
People can sign up to receive arena construction updates from the City of Oklahoma City.
