Suggestions for Riding

Boarding the Bus
Stand back from the curb when the bus approaches. Wait for the bus to stop completely before approaching the bus. Never cross in front of the bus.

Remain Seated
Once the bus is moving you must remain seated.

Grocery Shopping
Consider carrying an insulated grocery bag to place your frozen and refrigerated items in for returning from the grocery store. The bus is not always able to return for you as soon as you are done shopping.

Check for Belongings before Departing Bus or Van – Lost & Found
Check the area around you for personal items before exiting the bus.  Kidder Emmons Senior Services is not responsible for items left on its vehicles. However, if you believe you have left something on the bus, contact the dispatcher or driver and let them know which bus you were on and where you were seated.
