To Help Us Provide Better Service

Arrive at your stop a minute or two ahead of the time the bus is due. Our drivers make every effort to operate on schedule, but errors occur. Watches and clocks seldom agree and an error of a minute or two may result in a missed bus.

Wait for buses at designated bus stops at the far side of the intersections not in the middle of the block. This is an important safety factor for other traffic on the street that often must wait while the bus is loading. As an added help to the drivers, please flag the bus as it approaches.

Have the exact change or pass ready when boarding. Having the exact fare ready will help us give you on-time service. Drivers do not carry change.

Refrain from smoking and littering on the bus. No food or drinks for consumption. This results in a more pleasant and enjoyable ride for everyone. Animals, other than service animals, must be kept in an approved pet carrier.
