    Civic Center station is a light rail station on the Red and Blue lines of the St. Louis MetroLink system.[5] This below-grade station is located near 14th and Spruce streets near Interstate 64. It is also the primary transfer station for MetroBus and serves bus routes operated by Madison County Transit. Additionally, the station adjoins the Gateway Multimodal Transportation Center which has intercity services provided by Amtrak, Greyhound, and others.

    On August 14, 2017, MetroBus service returned to the station after an extensive renovation of the bus station portion of Civic Center. It included multiple new bus bays, a security center, an indoor waiting area and public restrooms.[6]

    Station layout[edit]

    Civic Center's platform is accessed via a set of stairs and a ramp from the MetroBus transfer and another ramp from Clark Avenue.

    Madison County Transit[edit]

    Several Madison County Transit bus routes stop here, providing service between downtown St. Louis and its suburbs in Madison County, Illinois.[8]

    Public artwork[edit]

    In 2018, Metro's Arts in Transit program commissioned the work Wheels by Claudia Cuesta and Bill Baker for this station. The stainless steel work is a highly visible site marker that integrates the different forms of transportation at this station. Wheels minimal footprint and the inscribed poem from T. S. Eliot invites people to circle the sculpture as they read the poem, creating the fourth wheel.[9]
