Megabus, Fullington Trailways discontinue all services in Pa. amid statewide shutdown

After suspending all trips to and from New York City last week, Megabus has discontinued all services in Pennsylvania.

Following Gov. Tom Wolf’s statewide stay-at-home order, the bus company announced all trips in the state have been canceled through April 30. The closure will begin Saturday.

“With customer and employee safety as our top priority, we continue to regularly sanitize our buses and operate them in a manner that allows for appropriate social distancing,” the company said on its website.

Megabus did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

On its website, the company outlined precautions it has taken to ensure the health and safety of passengers, including the reduction of available seats, increasing sanitation and providing all travelers with hand sanitizer.

The Megabus decision follows that of Fullington Trailways, which canceled all of its bus routes on Wednesday.

Greyhound has not announced changes to its Pennsylvania bus schedules.
