Coming November 28: New Numbers and Colors Make it Easy to Identify Bus Routes and Plan Trips
When you ride RTS, we want it to be easy for you to quickly and clearly identify which routes go where.
New Route Numbers
We know that our current route numbering system can be confusing. (For example, how can Route 1/1x travel to both Park Ave. and Lake Ave.?) That’s why, when we open the RTS Transit Center on November 28, we’re also rolling out new numbers for some of our bus routes. By giving each RTS bus route its own, unique number, it will be easier to plan your trip to your next destination.
New Route Colors
When you pick up a new RTS bus schedule, you’ll see it will either be green or blue, our RTS colors. These colors are designed to help you identify where our routes travel. Green means the route runs on the east side of Rochester and Monroe County; blue means the route runs on the west side.
You don’t have to use paper schedules, of course! You can always visit myRTS.com for maps, schedules and trip planning information, or you can download our Where’s My Bus? app, which gives you all of these plus real-time bus arrival information, a bus stop locator, service alerts, and more!
Here’s a rundown of the RTS route numbers and colors beginning November 28, 2014:
