Riding C-TRAN is Easy...
If you need help planning your trip, use our on-line trip planner or call Passenger Service at (360) 695-0123. When you’ve determined what bus to catch and the time it is expected to arrive, follow these simple steps:
- Wait at a C-TRAN bus stop or shelter. C-TRAN has more than 2,000 bus stops clearly marked with the route number of each bus serving that stop.
- Be sure you are visible to the driver. Stand close to the sign or shelter and watch for the approaching bus.
- Have your cash fare or pass ready. Exact fare please—drivers carry no change.
- Allow other passengers to get off the bus before you board.
- Place your cash fare or ticket into the fare box or show the driver your pass.
- About one block before your stop, signal the driver by pressing the yellow or black bell strip on the wall near the bus window.
