Being respectful of your fellow riders will make for a more enjoyable experience for everyone. The following are examples of public transportation etiquette:

• Offer your seat to elderly or disabled passengers.
• If the bus is crowded, make sure you leave room for people to move around you.
• Avoid using the phone as much as possible. If you do talk on the phone, try to keep conversations brief and speak quietly.
• Do not use multiple seats for your bags or for reclining. Be considerate of other people who are boarding the bus and are looking for a seat.
• Always cover your mouth when you sneeze or cough.
• If listening to music, use headphones that cannot be heard by other passengers or be sure to keep the volume at a reasonable level.

We have a "network" of routes in Elk County that we call Ride-to-Work. Its our way of referring to the work commuter routes that our passengers use.

Most of them pass through the new St. Marys Transit Center. SMTC is now a HUB for these routes.

The diagram below shows how you can use the Johnsonburg Express to arrive at the St. Marys Transit Center.

Then, from the transit center you will board one of 4 busses depending on your work destination.

There are 2 runs leaving Johnsonburg on the Johnsonburg Express:

The #1 Run leaves Johnsonburg at 6:02am from Clarion & Lindsay Street.

The #2 Run leaves Johnsonburg at 7:12am from BI LO.
