Tips For Easy Navigation

• Visit the Valley Metro System Map for an overview of Valley Metro's service area, and to find the bus or light rail route that serves your travel area.


• Valley Metro has several types of transit services including local, express/RAPID, light rail, local limited stop, local circulator/shuttles and regional connectors. Select a route/service type from the navigation pane on the left to find the route schedules and maps you need.


• If you prefer, you may download a PDF file of any route from the printed version of the Transit Book by clicking on the PDF link in the upper right-hand corner of each route page (requires Adobe Acrobat Reader, which may be downloaded for free from Adobe"s Web site).

Tips About Schedules

• Not all bus stops are shown on the route maps or listed in the schedules. If your bus stop is not listed, use the schedule to estimate when the bus will arrive at your stop.


• Departure times from park-and-ride facilities are not always listed in the schedules.


• Times shown in schedules are approximations. Actual arrival and departure times may vary according to traffic conditions. For this reason, it"s best to arrive at your bus stop at least five minutes before your bus is scheduled to leave.


• For Express and RAPID service, morning arrival times in central Phoenix and afternoon arrival times in outlying areas may be earlier or later than listed in the Transit Book depending on traffic conditions.


• In all schedules, p.m. time points appear in bold type.
