PASSENGER HELPFUL TIP: If your route 16 inbound bus from the TOWER is passing you on Glenridge because of full capacity and you must wait for the next available bus. Keep in mind the route16 bus is starting to unload people at the bottom of Brock Hill and now has availability. You could take the route 15 West/Brock Commuter bus down the hill and get off before it turns onto Glendale and transfer back onto a #16 Brock bus now that the bus has started to empty along Glenridge.

High School Students:  To purchase your monthly student pass your transit photo I.D. card will need a current 07/08 sticker.

Not having this will result in no sticker. Your bus fare will then be an adult ticket or a $2.50 cash fare.  This policy goes in effect OCTOBER 15, 2007
