WOW! The past week has been a whirl-wind! We’ve operated on some, or all, of our “severe weather” detours since last Wednesday and we are just about back to normal service . . . WOO HOO! First we had to deal with snow, then downed power lines, branches and even trees, and then ice! Hopefully, we will resume regular service and it will stay that way for a while.
After the big 2008 snow storm (the first time we’ve chained-up the buses!), we created a Severe Weather Service Plan – and we actually got to give it a test this past week. The purpose was to have a plan in place that allowed us to provide as much service as possible to our community and still focus on keeping our riders and staff safe.
After everything settles down, we will conduct an internal “debrief” to talk about what went well and what we could improve. If you have any observations or suggestions – please leave a comment! We want to provide the best service possible.
