Winter is upon us! OmniRide has updated the Winter Weather Emergency Service Plan (ESP), which is available here. Don’t wait until winter weather is predicted to review the plan!
If/when winter weather is predicted, OmniRide will monitor conditions. If service changes are warranted, starting at 4 a.m. for morning service and at 11 a.m. for afternoon service, customers should check for:
- A Rider Express e-mail advisory;
- A special alert on the home page of the OmniRide website;
- A recorded message at (703) 730-6664 or long-distance (888) 730-6664;
- Announcements on local television stations and on WTOP radio (103.5 FM) if time and circumstances warrant.
REMEMBER: No news is good news. If you don't see a service update alert, OmniRide buses are operating regular service.
Note that the ESP covers weather-related and other situations that can impact OmniRide’s ability to operate regular service.
