All buses are equipped with bike racks on the front of the bus which hold two bikes. Riders are responsible to load and unload their own bikes and space on the racks is on a first come basis. Bikes are NOT allowed inside the buses and Central Transit is not responsible for any damage incurred to or caused by bicycles on Central Transit property. Motorized bikes are not allowed.

4. I would like to ride the Central Transit bus, but I need to use a walker and cannot use steps. What can I do?

All Central Transit buses are ADA accessible. Each is equipped with a lift which is available for use by those passengers who cannot use the steps. Due to capacity constraints on the lifts, the weight limit including the person and their mobility device is 600 pounds and the footprint of the mobility device can be no larger than 48” x 30”.

5. Once I am on the bus, how do I tell the driver where I need to stop.

In many cases, the driver will ask where you want to exit the bus when you board. In addition, you may pull the yellow cord running along the bus windows. When it is pulled the driver will stop at the next bus stop on the route.

6. Sometimes when I use Google, it picks a path that is out of the way or requires a lot of walking. How can I make sure I am getting the best directions?
