<Title>Transit Fall 2020 Operations During COVID-19</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><span>Fall 2020 Operations
    During COVID-19</span></p>
    
    <div><span>
    
    <hr>
    
    </span></div>
    
    <p><span>Essential Travel
    Preamble</span></p>
    
    <p><span>In an effort to
    mitigate the spread of COVID-19, UMBC Transit is encouraging riders to PLEASE
    USE TRANSIT FOR ESSENTIAL TRAVEL ONLY. Transit defines essential travel as
    trips to and from campus, grocery stores, work, banks, hospitals, pharmacies,
    providing care for family members, food distribution centers such as Retriever
    Essentials, and other similar destinations. All Transit buses will be operating
    at reduced capacity to encourage social distancing. By reducing unnecessary
    travel, it is our hope that we have adequate space on our shuttles for those
    who depend on it to get to their classes safely.</span></p>
    
    <p><span>Health and Safety</span></p>
    
    <p><span>UMBC’s COVID19 safety
    protocols are in effect aboard buses and at bus stops. Aboard buses, distancing
    is accomplished by removal of half of the available seating. Unavailable seats
    are marked with signage. Facial masking is required aboard buses and at stops.
    Bus operator cabins are temporarily separated by clear removable sheeting.
    Should you need to inform the operator of a concern, please do so respecting
    social distancing guidelines.</span></p>
    
    <p><span>Your ID is Your Ticket
    to Ride</span></p>
    
    <p><span>Your campus ID is
    required to be presented upon boarding. You will be swiping your card to
    validate enrollment and to create a ridership report per route. These ridership
    reports are available to approved health agencies conducting tracing efforts.
    No visitors are permitted on Transit buses at this time.</span></p>
    
    <p><span>Routes</span></p>
    
    <p><span>UMBC Transit is
    providing its customary routes Monday through Friday with one exception:
    Courtney Road coverage is absorbed by the Paradise Route. Operational hours are
    limited to 6:30 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. Evening and weekend routes are suspended.
    However, retail business destinations and public transportation transfer points
    are incorporated into the modified Monday – Friday routes.</span></p>
    
    <p><span>Route Frequency</span></p>
    
    <p><span>Route frequency is
    different per route – some are hourly, some are midday only. Please see the
    Transit website for specific hours and route schedules. The bus locator system
    (Transit Tracker) is available for determining the real-time location of
    specific buses on route. The app is also used to send updates and messages to
    the ridership. The smart phone application is available for download from the
    Transit website.</span></p>
    
    <p><span>Delays, Emergency
    Notification, and Communication</span></p>
    
    <p><span>Multiple methods are
    used by Transit to communicate with our ridership:</span></p>
