COVID-19

Starting in late 2019 and hitting the United States in March 2020, the COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) outbreak began causing severe disruption to public transit agencies starting around mid-March as mass work-from-home and shelter-in-place programs began.

Each section on this page will link to official responses by major public transit agencies. Some sections will also feature maps and summaries of service (but not scheduling) changes for rapid transit lines only. Please note that as the current state of affairs changes quickly, data may not be up to date. In addition, after the event has concluded, some of the links may no longer accessible if the public transit agencies choose to delete the pages. Finally, when we say 'No Rapid Transit Service Changes' on this page, this refers to: Metro, Light Rail, Streetcar, Bus Rapid Transit, Commuter Rail, and select Arterial BRT lines/services.

Due to the constantly changing situation, incredible variation in transit operator responses, and plethora of special schedules, as of May 16, 2020, we are only noting line and station closures, and rapid transit routing changes and are no longer mentioning details of schedule changes or modified timetables. Refer to the linked transit operator websites for up to date information.

In addition, this page is no longer being maintained as of August 2020 due to additional complexity (some changes becoming semi-permanent, general uncertainty, etc). The information on this page is no longer up to date.
