In
order to effectively plan your trip, you will need to
identify which bus route(s) serves both your origin
and your destination. You will need to have Adobe Acrobat
Reader installed on your computer to view the Fixed
Route Map/Schedule and the related Fixed
Route Street Index on this site. If you do not have
Adobe Acrobat Reader, download
it now - at no cost! Please note: you will need
to use your magnifying glass tool in order to zoom in
and view the PDFs clearly.
The
B-NPTS Fixed
Route Map/Schedule displays the areas and streets
served by all eleven (11) fixed routes. After you have
identified the correct route for your trip by noting
which colored line serves your origin and destination,
match the color designated schedule information box
(on the Fixed Route Map/Schedule) with the color of
the route you will need to use for your trip. If you
have difficulty distinguishing colors, please note that
the lines are also distinguished by a letter designation.
The
schedule information boxes have three separate column
headings: "Leaves", "At" and "Heading
To". Under the column heading "Leaves", several
locations at which the bus stops along the route are
listed. To the right of each listing (under the column
heading "At") is the time (in minutes after the
hour) that the bus is scheduled to pass the particular
bus stop when it is traveling in the direction indicated
under the "Heading To" column heading. If the
point at which you plan to board the bus is not listed
under the column heading "Leaves" you may estimate
the time that the bus will be passing that point by
noting the time to the right of the listed bus stop
that immediately precedes your boarding point.
You
do not need to be at a point where a bus stop sign is
located in order to board a bus. The bus driver will
stop and allow you to board the bus at any corner where
it is safe to stop. If the driver cannot stop at the
point you wish to board, he or she will stop at the
nearest possible location where it is safe to make the
stop.
The
lower portion of each schedule information box contains
a 'Weekday Schedule" and a "Saturday Schedule". These
schedules list the times that the first and last bus
of the day leave the locations indicated.
