The On-Demand system allows for easy online booking with 184 stops throughout Town, real-time tracking of your ride, and a cashless payment option through your secure online account. 

You can book a ride up to one-week in advance in three easy ways:

When a rider books a pick-up, it is highly recommended that you book your return trip at the same time. If you know you are going to require roughly an hour to complete your task once you have arrived at your destination, book your return trip accordingly.  This will eliminate the possibility of longer wait times during peak service hours.

Booking Window: The booking window refers to a 10 minute window of time during when the bus will arrive to pick you up.

Arrive Before Time: When booking a trip and selecting a ride, be sure to pay attention to the ‘Arrive Before Time’ which appears in red.  This time indicates when you will be arriving at your destination.  For example, if you have to be at work by 5pm, ensure that the pick up time that you choose has an arrival time before 5pm.

Once you’ve booked your ride, please ensure that you are waiting at your designated pick up location in advance of your pick up time.

• Monday to Friday 6:15 a.m. to 9 p.m. (last booking 8:45 p.m.)
