OmniRide service changes take effect Monday, Sept. 27

OmniRide’s Fall Service Change will take effect on Monday, Sept. 27, when schedules for Express, Metro Express, and Local routes will change. The Lake Ridge – Mark Center Express route is still suspended. New schedule brochures are available from operators upon request and are posted on the OmniRide website. Please note that routes not listed below do not have any timetable or map changes.

OmniRide continues to follow COVID-19 mitigation steps/protocols. This includes stringent cleaning of bus interiors daily. We are also performing enhanced cleaning once a week on ALL buses, and have upgraded the strength of cleaning products used on the bus fleet. On-board air filters are cleaned and replaced frequently.  ALL passengers and the bus operator are required to wear face coverings while on board OmniRide buses. This requirement is in compliance with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) mandate on wearing face coverings on all public transit.

In order to minimize interactions between bus operators and riders and allow customers to board quickly and self-distance more effectively, OmniRide has instituted free fares on Local and Metro Express services. (Commuters on OmniRide Express buses will continue paying fares using a SmarTrip card – no cash fares.) OmniRide encourages the public to consider giving these services a try while they’re free!

OmniRide realizes that many of our riders continue to work remotely. When they’re ready to get back on public transportation, we’re ready to welcome them onboard!
