Flexibus stops
Flexibus does not offer door-to-door service. It’s a public transit service with no fixed times or routes that adapts to customer demand based on departure and arrival points. You can get on and off at regular RTC stops within the service area or at one of the other points suggested when you book your trip (most often the nearest intersection), to minimize walking distance.
-
Service areas
Flexibus allows you to travel within a single service area or connect to the existing RTC bus network. To see if you are located in a service area, see the regional map.
-
Accessibility
If you have a specific accessibility need (wheelchair or three- or four-wheeled scooter), check the “Accessibility” option in your profile. Each vehicle can accommodate one person with reduced mobility.

Keep in mind:
- Flexibuses do not have wi-fi
- You should avoid eating or drinking on board
- Fastening your set belt is mandatory
- Children who require a car seat must be seated on the lap of the person accompanying them
- No passengers can travel while standing
Bulky items
As with regular buses, the transport of items that are bulky or that may cause injury to other passengers is prohibited unless they are packaged, transported safely, and kept under the control of the person transporting them at all times. Items being transported must not get in the way of other passengers or the driver or hinder their safety. If these conditions are not met, the driver has the right to deny access.
