C-U MTD buses will no longer run along Mathews

URBANA – Traffic is expected to get a little lighter on Mathews Avenue now that buses will no longer be running along the campus street south of Green Street.

Effective this month, Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District buses instead are driving – and stopping – along Goodwin Avenue, one block to the east, instead of the stretch of Mathews south of Green to Nevada Street. Mathews is the first north-south street east of the Quad.
