WINTER 2023-2024 WEATHER EMERGENCY & HOLIDAY SCHEDULE

During the winter months, there is a high risk of major delays in service due to slow/stopped traffic on Route I-95 and in Center City. As implemented in the past, this “Winter Weather Emergency” shuttle plan will apply:

If we declare a “Winter Weather Emergency,” we will state the timeframe via email, social media, and the Navy Yard Transit App. We will give as much advance notice as possible, but it may be implemented and effective immediately, depending on the timing of a snow/ice event.

  • NAVY YARD-NRG STATION LOOPS MORNING: The first run will depart from NRG Station at 6:10 am (no 5:38 am shuttle).
  • NAVY YARD-NRG STATION LOOPS AFTERNOON: We do not anticipate any deviation from our schedule unless the storm is so severe as to force us to end service early. If we must end service early, we will notify tenants via email and social media.
