Your comfort, safety, and convenience come first with us. Here are a few tips to make the trip more efficient for you and all riders.

• Have your fare or EZFare digital pass ready before boarding – change is not provided.
• Seniors and persons with disabilities have priority use of the seats designated for them – it’s the law!
• Exit through the back doors to allow other passengers to board quickly.

How to Read Your Schedule

TARTA routes are listed numerically in the transit guide and identified by the route number. Time points, numbers in square boxes, indicate where buses stop along the route.

1. Identify your route number and route letter.
2. Determine which direction you’re going along with day of the week.
3. Time points are listed at key points only.
4. Match your boarding location with the closest time point. Use the previous time point to determine when you should be at your bus stop.
5. Find your departure time by reading down.
6. For your arrival time, read across.

Please note: Route numbers divided by route letters are shown as dashed lines on the map. Always pay close attention to evening, weekend and holiday routes as they tend to change from weekdays. Major cross streets are shown by a gray line. All routes stop at the TARTA Transit Hub at the corner of Huron and Cherry.
