In a newly amended public health order, Summit County officials have given transit services the go-ahead to resume operations. <\/p>\n

County officials issued the amended order,<\/a> which responds to changes being made at the state level, late Tuesday. Along with new rules about short-term lodging, restaurants<\/a> and ski areas<\/a>, the order allows for the Summit Stage and Breckenridge Free Ride to operate at 20% capacity. <\/p>\n

The order also gives permission to all other transit options, including mountain shuttles and ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft, to begin operating Wednesday, May 27.<\/p>\n

All of the transit services must follow physical distancing requirements outlined by the county\u2019s public health department. As part of those requirements, all passengers must wear masks or facial coverings at all times. The Summit Stage and Breckenridge Free Ride busses also will require people to remain 6 feet from one another unless they are in the same household. <\/p>\n
