NFTA Metro Bus and Rail Updates
The Buffalo and Niagara Falls Airports are operating as normal and will continue to do so under the guidance of the CDC and the New York State Health Department.
Metro Bus and Rail has temporarily suspended fare collection to aid social distancing. Because there is no fare collection, passengers should use rear doors to board and exit buses. Those who have special needs or mobility issues may still use front doors.
