Due to inclement weather, WSU Vancouver is delaying start time until 10:00 a.m. Friday, December 9. The 50th Ave. entrance is closed.

This information is being communicated on our website homepage and on area TV and radio stations.

If you have questions about our suspended operations procedure, please refer to: emergency closure and suspended operations procedure.

If plowing and/or de-icing is in progress when you arrive on campus, certain parking lots and pathways may be closed. In that case, please park in open, plowed parking lots—regardless of parking permit type—and use pathways that are plowed and de-iced.

It is your responsibility to decide if you can safely commute to WSU Vancouver in the event of inclement weather while WSU Vancouver remains open for operations.

Faculty members, if you cancel your class while WSU Vancouver remains open for operation, it is your responsibility to notify students of the cancellation.

The WSU Vancouver weather policy, along with instructional information and a list of closure notification websites can be found here.

C-TRAN service impacts due to adverse weather expected Thursday, 12/8

Posted: Wednesday, December 7, 2016 - 2:36pm

Due to wintry weather expected throughout the Portland-Vancouver area and Clark County on Thursday, December 8, C-TRAN riders should prepare for potentially significant impacts to bus service. Routes 157, 177 and 190 have been canceled for Thursday. Passengers who normally use those routes should consider the following options:

  • Instead of Route 157, take Route 199 from 99th Street Transit Center to Portland. Once in Portland, take any eastbound MAX to the Lloyd District.
  • Instead of Route 177, take Route 164 from Fisher's Landing Transit Center to downtown Portland.
  • Instead of Route 190, start from 99th Street Transit Center and take another Express route to downtown Portland. Once in Portland, use TriMet's Line 8 or the Portland Streetcar and the aerial Tram from South Waterfront Avenue for service to Marquam Hill.

C-TRAN Connector service is also canceled on Thursday, December 8. Other routes may experience impacts and delays depending on the conditions. Routes 2, 6, 9, 19, 32 and 47 may detour to snow routes. Travelers should use caution and wear extra warm clothing if they're out and about on Thursday.

Additional updates will sent out as needed, and alerts will be posted at www.c-tran.com. Major C-TRAN service impacts are also posted to Twitter (@ctranvancouver) and Facebook (www.facebook.com/ctranvancouver).
