Today, Metro Transit-St. Louis will begin a new light-rail improvement project at the University of Missouri-St. Louis South MetroLink Station, Metro Transit officials said in a prepared statement.

The $1.2 million project is being funded by federal stimulus dollars. The general contractor for the project’s first phase is R.V. Wagner Inc., Metro Transit officials said.

The project is slated for completion in early 2013, they said.
