As the Baltimore region continues to feel the impacts of COVID-19 with the Delta and now Omicron variants, MDOT MTA service may continue to be impacted as operators and staff utilize sick leave to manage symptoms from illness and vaccinations. Transit agencies across the U.S. are facing challenges with operator shortages which result in delayed or cancelled trips.

When bus service is delayed or cancelled, Transit App, MDOT MTA's real-time bus arrival and trip planning app, will show the most accurate information. Transit app can be downloaded for free at mta.maryland.gov/transit.

We encourage all riders to check our online tools before traveling, as it is the best way to stay ahead of any potential delays you could encounter during your transit trip:
* Use Transit app for next bus arrival information and to see where the next bus is.
* View current service alerts at mta.maryland.gov/service-alerts
* Sign up for e-alerts sent via email or text at mta.maryland.gov/enotifications
* Follow us on social media - Twitter @mtamaryland, Facebook and Instagram at mtamaryland.
We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate our riders' patience and understanding as MDOT MTA continues to balance delivering safe and reliable service while prioritizing the health and safety of our operators.
