Locations in bold with an astrick (*) are considered time points. Time points are stops along the route that have a set time for the vehicle to depart. Other locations listed are not considered to be time points and have approximate departure times. Remember to arrive early to your pickup location to ensure that you arrive at your destination on time. Track your bus by visiting BusTime® for real-time tracking and passenger load.

Remember to pull the stop request cord prior to your stop to let your driver know you would like to get off. Buses may bypass a stop when no passengers are waiting to board and no riders have made a stop request.
