Local conditions
A few things about Cape Girardeau specifically inform how service is scheduled.
Cape Girardeau sits in far southeastern Missouri near the Bootheel, the lightest-snowfall part of the state covered in this dataset, consistent with Missouri's clear north-south snowfall gradient. Winter precipitation here more often arrives as ice or a rain/snow mix than as sustained heavy snowfall, making bridge decks and overpasses along I-55 a particular icing concern even when total accumulation is modest. As a river town on Mississippi River bluffs, downtown's steep terrain adds grade challenges that the flatter parts of the city don't have.
We regularly service routes near I-55, US-61, Bloomfield Road, Broadway.
