No detour, but expect delays due to inclement weather.
When inclement weather conditions affect the DC Circulator system, detours are created to provide continual service.
Standardized detours help to better prepare riders for service changes. Each route has a designated Light, Moderate or Severe weather detour.
Throughout the season, the Service Status feature (in the table below) on the homepage will update to reflect the detour in use on each route. As an added reminder, the DC Circulator will update Twitter and Facebook to #Alert riders of the inclement weather detour (Light, Moderate or Severe).
To learn the inclement weather detours for each route, explore the menu below.
