Tips for Riding the Bus

  • Pick your destination.
  • Review the schedule to find the closest bus stop. Please see our Routes and Schedules page for more details.
  • Walk to your bus stop location.
  • Arrive 10 minutes early. The times listed on our schedules are departure times, so be sure to be at the designated stop before that time!
  • Please have your fare card, monthly pass, or exact change ready when you get on the bus.
  • Enjoy your ride!


If you need to set up an Off-Route pickup, call our dispatcher at 304-263-0876, option 1. You should call the day before your trip by 4:30pm. There will be an additional charge of $2.00 for an Off-Route.


Bus Etiquette
