All GoBus routes start and end at the City Park on Pope Street, and buses also stop at designated sites along routes to pick up passengers. Individuals waiting at any accessible place along any route can also be picked up by getting the bus operator’s attention.

If you are new to the routes please inform the driver where you would like to go, (they can help you).

Ride Instructions

Riders may catch a bus anywhere on the designated bus routes by following these instructions

  1. Find a place along the bus route that is convenient for you.
  2. Make sure you are on the correct side of the street.
  3. Drivers are instructed NOT to stop for individuals on the wrong side.
  4. Try to avoid busy traffic intersections.

Flex Route

Riders may also benefit from our local "flex route" type transit system. The "flex route" system allows a bus to modify its route, within 3/4 of a mile from its scheduled route, for a special pick-up or delivery when a person has made a prior pickup reservation with GoBus or the rider notifies the bus driver upon boarding of their need for a modified drop-off location.

Call 800-590-3371 to schedule a special pick-up. Please call before 2 pm, the day prior to the requested service. You may call up to one week in advance to schedule a ride.
