COAST Bus: Service Curtailment Notice for Tuesday, March 14, 2023

Published on

Due to the winter storm that will arrive overnight and result in a high rate of accumulating snow, wind, and significant snow totals, the decision has been made to curtail all service on Tuesday, March 14, 2023.

Based on the current forecast, COAST plans to return to normal operations on Wednesday. When COAST resumes service, expect delays as storm cleanup may still be affecting the roads and walkways.

“We really do not want to suspend service again this winter season, but feel this is the most sensible decision we could make based on the predicted conditions,” stated Rad Nichols, COAST Executive Director.

Nichols commented further, “We understand how these curtailments negatively impact people and do not make these decisions lightly. As always, when traveling after the storm, please be safe on your way to and from bus stops. Please do not wait for the bus on top of snowbanks. Find the nearest driveway opening; make sure you are visible to the bus operator and wave as the bus approaches. In low light conditions wave a lit cell phone or flashlight to make you more visible to the bus operator.” COAST recommends wearing bright clothing, having reflectors, and carrying a flashlight.

 For updated information on COAST services, please tune in to area radio and television news outlets. COAST will also be using its website at www.coastbus.org, Facebook page (www.facebook.com/COASTbus) and twitter (@COASTbus) to provide additional updates.
