PLANNING YOUR FIXED ROUTE TRIP
Metro Bus has many resources to help find your way, plan your trip and get you where you need to go. All Metro Bus Fixed Routes run on a set route with pre-determined stops and schedules.
METRO BUS SMART RIDE APP
View routes on the Metro Bus Smart Ride App. The Smart Ride App trip planner tool identifies fixed routes by estimated arrival time, most affordable trip, number of transfers or minimum walking time to a bus stop. Free for mobile devices.
GOOGLE TRANSIT
Fixed Route stops and schedules are available for travel planning on Google Maps. Enter your starting point and destination, then select the Public Transit option.
