First you must know what route you need to take to get you to your destination. Please check the Leave Times & Maps page for route maps or call 979-847-RIDE and they will assist you with finding the proper route and destination.

Next go to the nearest bus stop to your origination. Make sure you are at an official TAMU bus stop. Make sure the proper route number is displayed on the sign at which you are waiting. For an example look at the sign below.

This Bus Stop sign is for route 03, 06 and 07. Notice the numbers displayed at the bottom of the sign.

Make sure you arrive at the bus stop with plenty of time before the next scheduled leave time as the bus will only pick you up if you are waiting at a designated TAMU bus stop.

When the bus arrives please enter the bus through the front doors only.

Have a seat if available, relax and watch for your destination. If you are standing, stand behind the yellow line in the front of the bus and never stand or sit in the stairwells of the bus.

Please be aware that we are not stopping at every stop so if you want off let the driver know by pulling the cord between your stop and the previous stop. Please pay attention so that you do not miss your stop because once the bus has pulled away from the stop the driver can not let you off.

When you exit the bus check around for any belongings you brought with you as Transportation Services is not responsible for items left on the bus. Exit the bus through the rear doors only. After exiting the bus walk behind the bus and use the crosswalk to cross the street.
