Transit Alert – Real time departure predictions for transit stops will be intermittently unavailable from 10 AM to Noon today during routine system maintenance

Real time departure predictions for transit stops in all Metro and subscribing information systems, such as OneBusAway and Google, will be intermittently unavailable from 10 AM to Noon today during routine system maintenance.

Since most of the individual trip cancelations currently being made due to Metro’s COVID-19 response occur during morning and evening peak commute hours, minimal impacts are expected during this systems maintenance window.

Where they are routinely provided, scheduled departure times remain available during this time.

It is still possible for a trip to be delayed or canceled - for reasons unrelated to the current service reduction plan - and not reported by systems during this window, but the expectation is that it would be rare. 

Transit riders are encouraged to use the scheduled departure times of transit service at their stop and to be at the stop shortly before their service is scheduled at that location.  While every effort is made to operate transit service according to the published schedule, buses especially can be slightly early or late at stops, due to many variables that could be encountered along the route.

Your patience and understanding are appreciated as we continue the work to maintain and protect all of our systems.

Thank you for riding and for using Metro’s services.  Be safe.
