Icy road conditions and possible delays/detours expected Thursday and Friday
VIA Metropolitan Transit is monitoring winter weather forecasts and travel conditions that could impact service, including frigid temperatures and icy roads, later this week.
Bus, VIAtrans, and VIA Link services will continue to operate as long as it is safe to do so and there are no planned service disruptions at this time. Route detours and schedule adjustments due to severe weather will be posted on our Severe Weather page, our Service Alerts page, on VIA’s social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram), and through local news.
Customers also can call the VIA goLine at 210-362-2020 for information. We ask that customers please monitor for service and weather updates, and plan accordingly, including building in extra time for travel and dressing warmly.
Persons traveling to or from an area Warming Centers using Bus service; VIA Link in the northwest, northeast, and south zones; or VIAtrans service, can travel fare-free beginning Thursday, Dec. 22, 2022, and as long as warming centers remain open.
