HOW TO USE THE BUS SYSTEM
Where do you want to go... to a movie? work? shopping? We'll help you get there!
First: The Map/Time Schedule
The map shows the bus routes and the Transit Center, which is located at 150 East 500 North. It also shows the on-campus Aggie Shuttle bus system operated by Utah State University. Find your origin and destination on the map, and note the route that serves these areas. Using the nearest checkpoint to your desired bus stop, look at the Time Schedule above to figure out what time you'll need to wait for your bus. If you cannot determine how to plan your trip using the map, please call one of our friendly and helpful Dispatchers at 752-2877.
Drivers are instructed to only pick up passengers at approved bus stops, which are located throughout the Valley. Bus stops are easy to find. We recommend that you be at your bus stop at least three minutes early so that you do not miss your bus. As your bus approaches, please wave to the Driver to get his or her attention, and stand back as the bus pulls into your stop.
Each bus displays its route number/destination on a destination sign located above the windshield. If you are unsure if the bus serves your destination feel free to ask the Driver, they are very helpful!
Wait for passengers to exit before attempting to enter the bus. Most of your buses have a "kneeling" feature that lowers the entrance steps to approximately curb level. If you need this service, just ask the Driver for assistance. Inform the Driver if you will be transferring to another bus and move toward the rear of bus. Note that seats in the front of the bus are reserved for senior citizens and persons with disabilities- please be considerate and offer these seats to passengers who may need them. If you need the Driver to announce your stop please ask him or her to do so as you board the bus.
Fifth: Getting Off the Bus
When you are within one block of your destination, signal the Driver using the pull-cable switch. Stand behind the white line of the exit door until the bus has come to a complete stop. When debarking please watch your step, especially when it is wet or icy outside!
Sixth: Fares and Transferring
There is no charge to ride the buses. Routes 1 through 10 begin and end their routes at the Transit Center on the hour and half-past each hour. The Cache Valley North and South routes will arrive at the Transit Center. This makes transferring from bus to bus very easy. We have a wonderful transit center to make your transfer more comfortable. This building has an indoor seated waiting area, information booth, public phones, restrooms, and drinking fountains.
For your safety, please hold on to seat handles or railings while the bus is moving. Fold all carts or strollers prior to boarding the bus. We ask that you follow the directions of the Driver- he or she is authorized to ask you to leave Transit property for misbehavior. To make the trip more enjoyable for you and other passengers, refrain from raising your voice, eating or drinking on the bus, or playing music without using earphones; note also that you may not smoke, spit, use obscenities or litter on the bus or Transit Property, vandals will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
