Fares, Schedules & Services
Schedules and Maps
TARC is Greater Louisville’s public transportation
system with bus routes in Jefferson, Bullitt and
Oldham counties in Kentucky and Clark and Floyd
counties in Indiana. All TARC buses are equipped
with bike racks and are wheelchair accessible.
Taking TARC is a cost-effective way to travel, lets
you avoid traffic and parking hassles and is better
for the environment than driving a car.
Easy Trip Planning
You can plan your trip through
on TARC’s homepage at www.ridetarc.org. By
entering your departure and arrival locations
and time of travel, this service provides a quick
step-by-step itinerary of your bus trip including
directions to the nearest stop. If you use a
smartphone, you can access a Google Maps
mobile application to plan a TARC trip.
Stops
TARC buses stop only at
shelters and designated
bus stops clearly marked
with red and white
“Board Here” signs.

TARC’s system map and pocket
schedules for each route are
available at www.ridetarc.org.
You can also find schedules and
maps at several locations in
Metro Louisville including the
Hall of Justice at Sixth and
Jefferson streets, the main
branch of the Louisville Free
Public Library at Third and York
streets and at the University of
Louisville Student Center on the
Belknap campus.
How to Ride
Arrive at your stop at least five minutes
before the bus arrival time.
As the bus arrives, look for the electronic sign displaying the route number and name to be sure it’s your bus.
Have the correct cash fare (exact change only) or ticket ready to put in the fare box just inside the door, or show your pass to the driver as
you board.
To signal the driver you want to get off the bus, pull the cord above the windows a block before your stop.
Connecting Routes
If your trip requires a transfer or stop, you can ask
the driver for a transfer when you board. With
a transfer slip, you can continue your trip on any
bus in any direction at no extra charge if you
board within two hours from the time the transfer
is issued. To transfer to an express bus trip, you
will need to pay an additional $1 or 50 cents for
discounted rides.*
Special Services
Park and Ride, Bikes on Board
If you live too far from a bus
stop to walk, you can check out
TARC’s suburban park and ride
locations, primarily at churches
and shopping centers, at www.
ridetarc.org. You can drive to
a lot, park and leave your car
and take TARC. Or you can ride your bike to the bus
stop and use the bike rack on the front of the bus.
TARC3 Paratransit
For pre-authorized customers whose disabilities
prevent them from taking a TARC bus, TARC3
provides door-to-door service. For more information
on this service and eligibility, visit www.ridetarc.org
or call 502.585.1234.
