Responding to COVID-19

The Detroit Department of Transportation takes the COVID-19 situation very seriously. We are working with the City of Detroit, state and local public health officials and following the CDC’s guidance to reduce the spread of COVID-19.

Ride the Bus and Stay Safe 

DDOT would like to remind all passengers of the following when riding a DDOT coach: 

  • Mask required. Wearing a face covering is mandated by federal law. When you cover properly, you protect everyone
  • Fare collection has resumed. Appropriate fare is required to ride a DDOT vehicle.
  • Avoid riding if you feel ill. Please do not ride the bus if you feel sick. Get well soon!
  • Stay 6 feet apart. Remember to maintain social distancing from others while riding inside the bus. 

Remember to use the hand sanitizer dispensers to clean your hands as you're boarding the coach.

For questions, comments or concerns customers are encouraged to call Customer Service at (313) 933-1300 Monday-Friday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.
