METRO is working on a game plan to adjust service due to a potential winter blast expected to hit the Houston area early Tuesday morning.
The threat of icy conditions, particularly west and northwest, may impact our ability to run service in certain areas:
-
METRO HOV/HOT lanes (US 290, 45 North,) may not be open for the Tuesday morning commute. Bus service along the Katy Freeway could also be impacted.
- Park & Ride bus service, STAR vanpools and carpools may need to utilize the main lanes should the HOV/HOT lanes close Tuesday morning.
A reminder to customers: due to the potential fluctuating schedules, the METRO T.R.I.P. app will not be the best source of “next bus” arrival time info. Customers are encouraged to call the customer service line at 713-635-4000. Service alerts will also be on our website, www.ridemetro.org.
METRO asks that customers monitor local media, the City of Houston Office of Emergency Management and the National Weather Service for complete forecast information.
