How to Read Route Maps and Schedules

Find Your Route

• Look at the route name or letter on the map (for example, "A Route"). 
• Determine which direction you need to go: eastbound or westbound.
• Make sure you're looking at the schedule for the correct day type: weekday or weekend.

Locate Your Stop

• Numbered symbols represent bus stops on the map.
• Find the stop closest to your starting point.

Understand Timepoints

• Time points are columns of times under stop names on the timetable.
• They show when the bus is scheduled to leave that stops.
• Timepoints are also on the route map.

What to Do if Your Stop Isn't Listed

• Sometimes your stop will be between two timepoints.
• In that case, the bus will arrive between the two listed times.
• For example, if your stop is between Stop A (8:00 a.m.) and Stop B (8:10 a.m.), the bus will likely arrive around 8:05 a.m.
