The complimentary Mountain Mobility paratransit service will remain open to the public as an application-based service offering full operations from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily.<\/p>\n<p>In accordance with the recently updated public health order, the bus service is implementing a number of safety measures to help keep patrons healthy. Each bus will be limited to fewer than 10 passengers, all drivers and passengers older than 2 will be required to wear face coverings at all times, passengers will be asked to enter and exit through the rear door, and selected seats will be closed to use.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col\" readability=\"6\">\n<div class=\"row sd-donation sd-donation-mobile p-0\" readability=\"7\">\n<div class=\"col-xl-4 p-2\">\n<div data-bg=\"url(https:\/\/cdn.summitdaily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/03\/SDN-logo-white-1.png)\" class=\"p-0 mt-2 mb-2 h-75 text-center rocket-lazyload\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.summitdaily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/03\/SDN-logo-white-1.png\" class=\"logo m-0 p-0 invisible\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"d-inline mr-3\">Support Local Journalism<\/h3>\n<p><button class=\"btn d-inline\" type=\"button\" onclick=\"handleDonationButtonClickMidArticle()\">Donate<\/button><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe hope restoring service to select travel corridors within the county alleviates some of the challenges for those who have traditionally depended on the Summit Stage for transportation,\u201d Summit Stage Transit Supervisor Melissa Decker said in a news release. \u201cWe also appreciate everyone\u2019s vigilance in respecting the public health safety measures aimed at keeping drivers and riders as safe as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More information about the transit service\u2019s 2020 limited schedule is available on the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Summit Stage website (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.summitcountyco.gov\/586\/Transit-Summit-Stage\" target=\"_blank\">Summit Stage website<\/a><i class=\"fas fa-external-link-alt\"><\/i>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div readability=\"11.254797441365\">\n<div class=\"col-xl-7 pt-3 pb-4 sd-4 pl-4\" readability=\"19.081545064378\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.summitdaily.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/03\/SDN-logo-white-1.png\" class=\"logo\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>As a Summit Daily News reader, you make our work possible.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Now more than ever, your financial support is critical to help us keep our communities informed about the evolving coronavirus pandemic and the impact it is having on our residents and businesses.
