MISSOURI CITY, Texas — The Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County (METRO) officially opened the new Missouri City Park & Ride, a modern transit hub designed to improve mobility for Missouri City and Fort Bend County residents.

Located at the intersection of Fort Bend Parkway and Knight Road, the facility connects riders to the Texas Medical Center with options to hop on METRORail or other local bus routes. The facility also serves as a pick-up and drop-off point for METRO’s 363 Missouri City curb2curb service, allowing for easy travel to and from the location, a news release said.

“As this community continues to grow, access to reliable transit will be increasingly more important,” said Board Chair Elizabeth Gonzalez Brock. “The new Missouri City Park & Ride expands mobility options, making it easier for commuters to connect to key destinations within METRO’s service area.”

METRO officials say the new Missouri City Park & Ride offers 1,750 covered parking spaces and a covered waiting area.

The facility serves as an anchor in Phase III of the Fort Bend Town Center development, a mixed-use lifestyle center that includes housing, retail, and entertainment venues.
