Reading a Schedule

Each bus has a route number and a name, for example #14/Drinker. The front of each COLTS schedule lists major stops along the route, such as Mall at Steamtown.

Inside, you will find a timetable for Monday through Friday and one for Saturday. Because of the large number of total stops in our system, only principal landmarks are listed. You should use the landmarks to locate the time point closest to your point of origin.

Across the top of the grid, from left to right, you will see addresses (i.e., Blakely St. at Drinker St.) or landmarks (i.e., Stauffer Industrial Park) listed. These are major landmarks along that particular bus route that correspond with arrival times in vertical rows underneath. PLEASE NOTE: The bus stops at points (marked by signs) in between all of these major landmarks.

In those vertical rows, you will see the arrival time at each of the landmarks listed.

Please remember that arrival times are approximate and could vary due to road and traffic conditions.

All COLTS schedules have maps on them that illustrate our routes.
