RTC RIDE, Reno's bus public transit system, has a snow route system for when snow and ice conditions make it necessary to use detours on certain routes in the RTC RIDE system. The detours are run on routes with steep hills and sharp turns that become hazardous to navigate when the roads are frozen and slick.

Since it is fairly flat around much of the Truckee Meadows, not every route is affected. Those along which snow routes are implemented include routes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 15, and 17. You'll know if your regular stop is on a snow route when an orange snowflake sign is posted. To find out ahead of time and avoid a slog through the snow, check out my RTC RIDE Snow Routes article for ways to stay informed when the snow flies.
