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 listed 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 Dispatch office at 304-263-0876, Option 1. You should call the day before your trip by 4:30pm to schedule the trip.  There will be an additional $2.00 charge for an Off-Route, which must be paid for prior to or at the time of the trip.
