Routes & Schedules
RouteShout Live fixed route bus tracking
MAX has paired with Routematch to provide a real-time bus tracking app for passengers. This app will allow riders to:
1. See where the bus is located and the ETA
2. Locate bus stops near them
3. Favorite stops the rider uses often
4. Look up an address to find the closest stop to that address
5. Through this app MAX will also be able to update passengers on any delays, closures or other transportation alerts!
Access the online desktop portal HERE.
RouteShout 2.0 will be available for free download on Apple Store and Google Play.
Bus Routes and Schedule Information
MAX operates hourly fixed bus routes and an evening Twilight Route Monday through Saturday. There is no Sunday service. Fixed route buses depart from the Padnos Transportation Center located at 8th Street and Lincoln at the top of the hour every hour and return to the transfer center at :50 to allow for passenger transfers. Wait for the bus directly at the bus stop sign or shelter so the bus will see you and stop.
The Padnos Transportation Center is an inter-modal hub for MAX city bus service, Amtrak, and Indian Trails. The center has outdoor bus shelters, a heated indoor waiting area with vending machines, benches, public telephone, water fountain, and restrooms. MAX bus passes, Indian Trails intercity bus tickets, and Amtrak tickets (from an unmanned kiosk ticketing machine) may be purchased at the Padnos Center.

Annual Passenger Survey
Please check out the responses
2019 PASSENGER SURVEY
On August 29, 30 and September 1, two MSU students assisted MAX marketing by handing out the customer satisfaction and trip purpose surveys, and encouraged passengers to fill them out on both the fixed routes and Reserve-A-MAX paratransit service. The students were able to collect surveys from more than 200 transit riders.
We are so thankful to all the passengers and the students that took time out of your schedule to assist us and review the service we have been providing.
We proud of the responses we received and we’ve attached them below to share with the public.
