Bus routes are designated paths that buses follow to transport passengers from one location to another. Each route typically has specific stops where passengers can board or disembark. These routes are planned to connect important areas such as residential neighborhoods, schools, and commercial districts, making public transportation accessible to the community. In many cities, bus routes are numbered or named for easy identification. Passengers can find information about routes, schedules, and stops through transit websites or mobile apps. Understanding bus routes helps individuals plan their journeys efficiently and can reduce reliance on personal vehicles, contributing to less traffic congestion and lower emissions.
