Beginning Wednesday, February 4, riders using GoBus in Cleveland will board and disembark at a new location: the RTA Brook Park Station at 17510 Brook Park Road.
The move creates a practical, affordable link between intercity bus travel and the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority Red Line. From Brook Park, passengers can ride directly to Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, Tower City Center downtown, and points east.
What’s changing
- New Cleveland stop location: RTA Brook Park Station, 17510 Brook Park Rd.
- Effective date: Wednesday, February 4
- Affected trips: All GoBus schedules serving Cleveland
- Minor timing adjustments: Schedules 12 and 13
- Barons Bus connection remains at 13315 Brook Park Road for Barons Bus Lines riders
This directly affects Mansfield-area riders
For travelers coming from Mansfield to Cleveland, this change is important.
Many North Central Ohio passengers use GoBus to reach Cleveland specifically to connect onward with Greyhound Lines, Barons, and other carriers. With the Cleveland stop now at Brook Park:
- Transfers to Greyhound and other intercity lines will require attention to the new location
- Riders may need to use the Red Line or a short local transit connection to reach other bus terminals
- Trip planning from Mansfield now involves understanding this new transfer point
If you have been accustomed to arriving at the previous Cleveland stop and walking or ridesharing to another bus line, that routine changes on February 4.
Why this matters for riders
This shift turns Cleveland into a true transit hub rather than simply a drop-off point.
- Red Line fares start at $2.50
- GoBus fares start under $10 one-way
- Direct rail access to the airport and downtown
- Lower-cost connections without needing a taxi or rideshare
For budget-conscious travelers, students, seniors, and anyone making a multi-leg trip without a car, this creates new options but requires a bit more awareness.

The bigger picture
This is a small logistical change with a large practical effect, especially for riders coming from Mansfield and other North Central Ohio communities who rely on Cleveland as a connection point to the rest of the country.
