Are animals allowed on buses?
Service animals for individuals with disabilities are welcome to ride on the bus at no extra charge. We ask that these animals be kept under control so that the animal does not become injured, pose a threat to other passengers, or interfere with the safe operation of the bus. Visit Service Animals for more detailed information.
Pets other than service animals are only allowed on the bus if they are restrained in an animal carrier or covered container.
What are in-seat transfers?
This means on certain trips, a bus serving one route will continue on as another route at the end of the line. For your convenience, Sun Tran provides information on in-seat transfers in the Ride Guide.
If you require two or more buses to complete a one-way trip, it is possible that an in-seat transfer can help you make your trip using just one bus without a transfer.
