Text routes to 88188
From your text-enabled device, text the word 'routes' to 88188. The reply will ask for the 4-digit bus stop ID - you can find this on the bus stop sign, or you can also
find it at www.metrobus.com/nextbus.
You can save a step by texting 'routes' along with the stop id all at once, for example, text 'routes 1150' instead of just 'routes' when you make your request.
Reply with a STOP ID & route number
Once you text the bus stop ID, the reply will provide you with a list of route numbers servicing the stop. Text back the route number for which you want to receive departure times from the bus stop.*
*If only one route services a bus stop, the reply will be the next scheduled departures from the stop - you will not be prompted to reply with a route number.
Get your departure times
The reply will show the next two departure times for the route you selected and the direction those trips will be heading.
