Passengers Are Advised to Check for Possible Detours or Delays

The Rhode Island Public Transit Authority (RIPTA) announced that it will run regular service tomorrow, Sunday, January 30, 2022, following the suspension of service today due to a travel ban.  Riders may experience some delays or detours due to slippery road conditions or streets still being cleared. They are also advised to use extreme caution at bus stops.  The safety of passengers and employees is RIPTA’s top priority and the transit authority thanks customers for their patience.
