MCT Micro can pick up and drop off most riders at their door, however there are some streets that may be difficult for the bus to navigate. In instances where the bus is unable to pull up to your door or drop you off at your desired location, the bus will get as close as possible.

The driver may pick up and drop off other riders along the way. Drivers are not authorized to make unscheduled stops to ensure all other riders’ trips are performed on time. 

If scheduling through the MCT Micro app, you will receive a notification when the bus has arrived to pick you up. As a courtesy to other riders, and to stay on schedule, if you do not show up within the 2-minute waiting period the bus will depart. Drivers are not able to wait at drop-off locations.

A ride can be canceled directly from the app or by calling 618-797-INFO (4636). Remember, canceling at the last minute can negatively impact other riders, so remember to cancel as soon you know you no longer need a ride!
