You can use the trip planner to find the best trip for your needs based on the general area of your origin or destination!  This is a great way to search for a trip if you're not sure which bus stop to use, or you don't mind walking a short distance within your neighborhood to catch the bus.

This is a new trip planner feature, as of July 2008, so please be sure to contact us to tell us how it works for you.  We will refine this tool based on your input.  We're always available at tcat@tcatmail.com or 607-277-RIDE!
