Anyone seeking relief from the heat can ride the buses to stay cool with a valid ticket during these hours.
Transfer Information: To help us maintain accurate ridership numbers, we kindly ask that you transfer buses every two hours at Central Station. Drivers may also request that you switch buses throughout the day.
Travel Training: Travel training is available to help people learn how to ride our buses.
