<div class="content"><span style="padding-left: 50px;">(COLUMBIA, MO)</span> - The University of Missouri is scheduled to construct a roundabout at the intersection of Tiger Avenue and Hospital Drive from May 15 to July 28. During construction, the intersection will be closed to traffic. Starting at 6:25 a.m. Monday, May 15, and continuing until completion, Go COMO bus service on the black route will detour to avoid the road closure.<br /><br />When traveling south on Tiger Avenue, instead of passing through the intersection of Tiger Avenue and Hospital Drive to reach East Stadium Boulevard, the black bus will instead turn right on Turner Avenue and then turn left onto South Providence Road. Southbound bus service will be unable to visit the two bus stops at Tiger Avenue and Rollins Street and at Tiger Avenue at the Residence Halls. Riders who use these stops should instead use the stop at Tiger Avenue and Conley Avenue.<br /><br />When traveling north on South Providence Roa
d, instead of using East Stadium Boulevard to turn onto Tiger Avenue, the black bus will turn right on Kentucky Boulevard and then left onto Tiger Avenue, at which point it will continue along its normal route. Northbound bus service will be unable to visit the bus stop at Tiger Avenue and Hospital Drive. Riders who use this stop should instead use the stop at Tiger Avenue and Kentucky Boulevard.<br /><br />The DoubleMap app and <a style="white-space:nowrap" href="https://www.gocomotransit.com/">GoCOMOTransit.com</a> will be updated with the detoured route paths before the start of bus service May 15. Riders are reminded that they are able to use the app to check the location of their bus at all times. Riders can also sign up to receive text alerts about route changes at <a style="white-space:nowrap" href="https://Alerts.CoMo.gov">Alerts.CoMo.gov</a>.<br /><br />More information about the construction project can be found at the University of Missouri press release at <a styl
