On-hand staff can provide trip planning assistance and answer specific rider questions on the New Bus Network, their routes and bus stops. 
 
The table discussions and one-on-one meetings show customers rider tools, like the Dual Trip Planner, which is a side-by-side trip display tool, helpful for riders whose routes are changing.

Patrons now have access to a printable map showing the New Bus Network along with individual route maps and videos of the more complex routes.
