MATBUS fixed routes will be fare free on Saturday, May 31, 2025 due to numerous detours created by the Fargo Marathon. This promotion includes the entire metro area and will last all day, regardless of when the marathon is completed. Free rides are not valid for MAT Paratransit.
Routes 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 will be detoured or affected from approximately 7:15 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Routes will operate to the best of their ability. However, due to runners and blocked intersections, delays will be inevitable.
Routes 1 and 2 will experience some delays but will not be detoured.
