How do I find my route and stops?

Bus stops are convenient: The JO has a flagging policy. The bus will stop anywhere along the route where it is safe to pull over. This means you don’t have to look for a bus stop sign. Wave your arm as the bus approaches to signal the driver to stop. In Missouri, please use the posted bus stop signs rather than flagging the bus.

There are several ways to find a route:

• Call Center: call 816-221-0660 for personal assistance finding a route. Operators can help plan your trip and give information on The JO, The Metro (KCMO) or The Bus (KCK).
• Google Trip Planner: use the link on the right menu to enter a time and a pair of addresses. Google will suggest transit options.
• System Map: PDF map on the right menu shows all routes in Johnson County. Find a route near your location and look up that route schedule to find detailed information.
• Route Schedules: Details for each route in service. You can search by city or route name.

Park and Ride locations are available throughout the county to provide additional opportunities to access the transit system.
