Finding the Right Bus:
Raider Regional Transit has two routes, the Red and Blue. Each bus is marked with signs on and over the windshield denoting the route. Bus stop signs have been installed on campus and throughout the Shippensburg community. Look at the RRT schedule, check schedule and bus stop locations, proceed to the nearest bus stop, wait for the bus traveling the route you wish to ride and the driver will top for you. You may want to wave to the bus driver indicating that you wish to board the bus.
