CITY OF MADISON - Metro Transit


COLD WEATHER TRAVEL TIPS


During days of extreme cold weather travel, Metro encourages riders to dress warmly and plan all trips ahead of time before heading outside to wait for a bus.

Some additional riding tips are listed below.


PLAN AHEAD

Make sure to check your Ride Guide, call Metro’s customer service center at 266-4466, or plan your trip online at mymetrobus.com before you travel.

This is especially important if you’re making a new trip or one you are not completely familiar with.

Make sure to also confirm that your bus or route is not following a detour due to construction or special event.

Detours



CALL 266-4466 IF YOU'RE WAITING AT STOP FOR EXTENDED AMOUNT OF TIME

Add Metro's customer service center number 608-266-4466 into your cell phone before leaving for your stop.

If you've been standing at your stop for a long period of time, call to check on your bus.

Buses can run late due to inclement weather and poor road conditions. Drivers maintain schedules as conditions allow.



PLAN EXTRA TIME INTO YOUR COMMUTE

During snowy or other inclement weather, add extra time to your commute. Plan ahead and take an earlier trip.
