Snow Routes

Snow Routes are slightly altered routes that help ensure the safety of our passengers and operators as they navigate the city. See below to learn how each KAT route is affected when operating on Snow Routes.

When weather conditions worsen, you can find out if KAT will operate on Snow Routes by looking for an alert on our Home Page, by checking our Facebook, or our Twitter, pages or by using our official app, Transit. For more information, call us at 865-637-3000.
