VIA Metropolitan Transit will begin operating on an “Essential Service” schedule Monday, April 27, which maintains or improves current schedules for routes that continue to see high ridership and adjusts others based on changing conditions such as lower demand and available resources. Several routes will move to Sunday schedules with some exceptions. These changes will also impact Bus Stops throughout the service area. VIA has set a safe capacity limit of 16 passengers per trip to allow for social distancing and ask all riders to wear cloth face coverings. Updates on VIA’s response to COVID-19 and related service alerts are posted regularly to VIAinfo.net. Customers can plan bus trips on the VIA goMobile app, online or by calling our customer care line at (210) 362-2020.
