Boarding Tips
Once you know your travel route, go to any designated PART bus stop along that route. Arrive at least five minutes before the bus is scheduled to leave. Each bus displays the name of the route above the windshield. Observe the destination sign carefully since more than one bus route may stop at a particular bus stop. Make sure you are boarding the correct bus. After the bus has come to a complete stop and the door is open, grasp the handrail and carefully climb the stairs. If you have any questions about the route or destination, ask the driver.
