Votran Service Delays And Interruptions During Bike Week

Posted

Volusia County, FL- Bike Week will bring heavy traffic to Volusia County, and Votran riders should expect numerous delays, interruptions and route deviations.

Schedule delays can occur from March 10 to 19. Detours are subject to

change without notice.

“Votran will make every effort to notify customers as soon as the

detours and route deviations are expected,” said Steve Sherrer, Votran

general manager. “Buses will be rerouted to secondary roads when

traffic becomes congested. The latter part of Bike Week tends to affect

Votran routes and schedules more than the earlier days.”

From March 15 to 18, Votran vehicles will not use the Intermodal

Transit Facility at the Ocean Center. Route deviations include:

● Routes 1, 18 and 19 will make service stops on State Road A1A.

● Route 3 will not serve Riverside Drive between Second and Third

streets.

● Route 8 will make service stops on Halifax Avenue.

● Route 11 will experience service interruptions and detours. Buses

will use U.S. 1 from Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard to Fairview

Avenue. There will be no service to Volusia Square and the Daytona Flea

Market.

● Route 17A/B outbound will be unable to use Main Street beginning

March 10. It will use the International Speedway Boulevard bridge in

both directions.

● Route 18 inbound, from State Road A1A, will use Seabreeze Boulevard

to Mason Avenue and U.S. 1 to the Votran Transfer Plaza.

● Routes 18 and 19 will not serve Embry-Riddle Aeronautical

University and Daytona Beach International Airport.

● Route 60 will run a regular route and will have a bus added to the

route.

Night and Sunday service will operate from the Transfer Plaza from

March 15 to 19. Route deviations include:

● Route 1 will use International Speedway Boulevard to State Road A1A

and will end at Vining Court and Granada Boulevard. There will be no

service on the Granada Bridge.

● Routes 3, 4 and 10 will use Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard,

Beach Street and Michigan Street to Fairview Avenue outbound and

● Route 15 will use Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard to Beach

Street.
