Moderate Snow Routes
During moderate snow accumulation or light ice conditions, Metro will implement a moderate snow plan. Service will be suspended on some routes and buses are detoured around roads prone to hazardous conditions, including many neighborhood streets. Passengers may experience increased wait times due to road conditions. See light snow routes and severe snow routes.
If the District of Columbia Public Schools are open when a moderate snow plan has been implemented, Metrobus routes that serve DC schools will operate at specific times.
