How to Read your Bus Schedule
CENTRE LINE - Look at the map in the schedule and locate the time-point right before where you wish to board the bus. Time-points are numbered in the direction the bus runs along the route. The number of this time-point on the map corresponds to the numbered columns in the timetable section of the schedule. Times listed in the columns give the time when the bus is scheduled to leave that time-point.

If you are at a stop located between time-points the bus will arrive after the time shown for the previous time-point, but before the time shown for the next time-point. If you are waiting at a bus stop, you may also check the information holder at the stop for the approximate arrival time.

CATA riders may now click on any one of the bus stops shown on the Centre Line schedule maps on this website and access the same specific schedule information that is posted in the information holders at that location. This option launches Acrobat Reader, the free software program for viewing and printing Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files, where you can then view and/or print an exact duplicate of the information holder sign for that stop which shows the approximate arrival time for every route that serves that stop.

The following example uses a sample printed schedule from the CATA RIDE GUIDE to demonstrate how to read the schedules. The versions of the schedule on this website look slightly different but the process is the same.
