If traveling this weekend, know before you go!


We are preparing for round two! CATS is once again monitoring the potential for winter weather this weekend. Normal operations will continue as long as conditions allow.

For the most updated information, download the CATS-Pass app, where you will find a “Winter Weather Schedule & Detours” section. Push notifications and additional Rider’s Alerts will also be sent for any major service disruptions.

Customers can visit the inclement weather alert page by clicking this link: Inclement Weather Alerts, which will provide real-time bus detours caused by changing road conditions.

In addition, we will provide updates on the official CATS X and Facebook accounts.

Those using transit during a winter weather event should be mindful of slippery conditions while boarding and exiting transit vehicles. If possible, please consider delaying travel until conditions improve.

For questions or concerns, community members can speak to CATS Customer Service at 704-336-7433.
