City Bus Loops (Circulators)
Community Circulators are bus loops that help residents get to important places like grocery stores, clinics/hospitals, restaurants, banks, and businesses. On demand stops within a short distance of the regular route can be requested.
These services run during limited days and hours. Pick-up/drop-off is curb-to-curb. They are for everyone (all vehicles are ADA accessible).
