LTD’s Service Alert system is maintained to inform you when a detour is going to affect regular service to a specific bus stop or route.  Detours can be the result of construction, weather, a community event, emergency situations, etc.  Every effort is taken to keep the information as up-to-date as possible.  In addition to the service alerts found on each route page, LTD publishes the alerts in real-time on Twitter.  To learn more about setting up a Twitter notification, click here.
