As a service to the community, Metro Transit is offering free rides on all fixed route and paratransit vehicles beginning tomorrow, Saturday, August 25. Free rides may continue into next week depending on weather conditions.

There are no plans to shut down or discontinue service. However, riders should plan for possible reduced service, detours and delays in the event that water levels rise within the isthmus.

Detours and reduced service announcements will be made online at mymetrobus.com, on Metro’s social media accounts and through text alerts.

Passengers can also stay updated at www.cityofmadison.com/flooding.

Staff would also like to remind passengers that the annual August service changes are in effect this Sunday. Check your trip.
