Riverside Memorial Hospital

During and after a snowstorm, there will be both route and schedule changes for the hospital employee bus. The bus will run 15 minutes early, so in the first stops (at Artesian and Riverdale), the bus will be approximately 10 minutes early. These stops are on a hillside, so please wait at the top of the hill, so that the driver can stop safely. When the driver approaches, step back from the curb. The driver will stop away from the snowdrifts on the side of the road, so next check for traffic, walk carefully to the bus, and board from the street. Once on the bus please proceed quickly as far back as possible so we do not block traffic. The bus will not stop at Bellevue Square or the Stadium. Employees usually boarding at those places will be picked up at the Eastdale Mall stop, which will be approximately 5 minutes early. The final stops, at Robinson and Clark, will be about 5 minutes behind schedule. Ice storms may cause the shuttle service to be canceled for a period of time. Listen to your local radio station after an ice storm. When cancelations occur, you will receive an email announcement, and it will also be announced on the local radio station.
