How to Find a Route for a Bus

Knowing exactly when the bus is supposed to arrive and depart is a great way to plan your trip. It can save you from unnecessarily waiting for a bus in extreme weather and at night, when it is more dangerous. Although most buses stick to a specific route, the times are still estimates. It is best to arrive just a bit early, to ensure that you do not miss your bus.

      Contact the bus company’s customer service department to inquire about the schedule. You will need to provide the representative with your location, the time that you are leaving and/or wish to arrive and your destination. The representative will provide you with directions over the phone. In addition, you can ask the representative to mail you a copy of the route for future reference.
