Show up and show out for increased bus service at MATA’s upcoming board meeting! On Tuesday, June 27 at 3:30 PM, the MATA board will be voting on upcoming service changes, including the new 31 Firestone route that will serve North Memphis and Midtown. Come out and speak in favor of the 31 Firestone, which brings MBRU closer to obtaining our goal of reinstating the full 31 Crosstown Route! Board meetings are held at MATA Headquarters, 1370 Levee Rd.
