• Some areas have stops along both sides of the street.

Deviation stops

• The Explorer Blue and Green routes may deviate off the route to drop off or pick up passengers as long as the deviation meets certain criteria.
• Passengers may request a deviation stop in two ways:
  • After boarding - ask the operator to request approval for a deviation stop.
  • Before boarding, e.g. when the location begins off the route - call BT two hours in advance of the desired pickup time, and request a deviation stop.

Requests are considered on a first come, first served basis, and will be approved if:

1. The requested stop is an approved location
2. The deviation will take not more than five minutes
3. The deviation will not result in the route being late.

To request a deviation please call two hours in advance on the day the deviation is being requested. Deviations can be requested between 7 AM and 5 PM Monday through Friday by calling (540) 443-7111.
