Boarding and Exiting

Catching The Bus

Arrive at your bus stop five to ten minutes early. Wait on the sidewalk by the bus sign, away from the curb.
Check the headsign above the windshield of the bus for the route number and destination. Make sure to check the headsign just before boarding since buses may sometimes change routes.
Signal the operator to stop for you by waving. Wait until the bus comes to a complete stop and the door opens all the way before boarding.

Leaving The Bus

Watch for your destination. If you are not familiar with the area, ask the operator to call out your street.
About one block before your stop, signal the operator to let you off. Press the rubber strip or pull the cord located between the windows to activate the buzzer.
Whenever possible, please exit using the rear door. This speeds the boarding of new passengers.
Finally, check to be sure you have all your belongings with you — and don’t forget your bike if you used the bike rack!
