Get Notifications About Disruptions on Your Line

In select cities, you can stay on top of schedule changes, stop relocations, entrance closures, and other unexpected surprises by subscribing to service alerts for your most frequently used transit lines.

You can receive notifications straight to your phone when agencies publish alerts.

Grey alerts indicate an upcoming disruption on the route or information about changes at a station or stop.
