Bus Training

We know that navigating a new system can be challenging in any situation, so we are here to help. If you or your organization needs assistance with a better understanding of how RMTD works, feel free to give us a call. We are more than willing to come on-site to discuss the ins and outs of our routes, fare programs, and other system-related questions.

For more information contact our Marketing and Communications Manager Orlando Toatley at 815-961-2226 or via email at otoatley@rmtd.org

If you have a disability but would like to ride our fixed route system, Rockford Mass Transit partners with RAMP to do bus training for persons with a disability.

PLANNING YOUR TRIP:

Arrive at the bus stop 5 minutes before scheduled departure time

• Make sure the operator sees you as the bus approaches the stop.
• Verify you are getting on the right bus.
• Check the route number and name in the electronic display located above the front window of the bus.
• If in doubt, please ask the driver. Drivers do not carry change so have exact fare or bus pass ready.
