Believe it or not, winter is just around the corner. It’s time to dig out the snow boots, dust off your shovel, and start planning for severe weather and program closings. While it is very rare for the CCAR day programs to close completely, we occasionally need to alter or cancel specific bus routes. How do we determine when to cancel a route? If the Charleston Schools are closed, we will only transport individuals who live in Charleston. This does not include the rural Charleston areas. Safety is always our priority. Therefore, our drivers may alter additional routes or arrival times depending on road conditions. How will you know when there are changes? We will post these on our website’s Events calendar. These will also be announced on 101.3 FM, 92.1 FM, and 104.3 FM. Announcements are usually made by 6:00 am. If consumers or families have questions, they are always welcome to contact their case manager or program director.
