For immediate release: January 3, 2022

Metrobus service temporarily suspended due to weather conditions, effective immediately

Metrobus is temporarily suspending service immediately due to rapidly deteriorating weather and hazardous road conditions throughout the region. All buses currently in operation with customers will operate to the end of the line to complete their routes if safe to do so. All other buses will hold at stops until roads are passable and safe to resume service.

Heavy snow continues to fall throughout the region and travel is strongly discouraged unless absolutely necessary. As crews work to clear roads, Metro will continue to monitor road conditions to determine when it is safe to resume service. As an alternative, customers who must travel should consider using Metrorail service which continues to operate on a normal schedule with trains every 12-24 minutes.

Customers are encouraged to sign up for MetroAlerts text and email messages for the latest service information. In addition, Metro will also provide updates when service is safe to resume and service information through the Status and Alerts page at wmata.com and on Twitter @MetrobusInfo and @MetrorailInfo.
