As the calendar flips to 2025, GoBus is set to implement several changes to its routes and schedules, effective January 2, 2025. These updates aim to streamline travel and enhance convenience for passengers across Ohio and neighboring regions. Here is everything you need to know about the changes coming to GoBus routes.
Adjustments to Route Schedules
Travelers on select GoBus routes will notice timing adjustments starting in the new year. The affected schedules include:
- Route C (Schedule 31): Cleveland to Parkersburg (PM service).
- Route D (Schedules 10 & 11): Express service between Wooster and Columbus, including Mansfield.
These updates are designed to improve schedule reliability and align with the needs of travelers. Passengers are encouraged to review the updated schedules in advance to avoid any confusion.
Changes at the Columbus Greyhound Stop
One of the most significant changes involves the Columbus Greyhound stop. Beginning January 2, 2025, this location will operate as a TRANSFER-ONLY stop. Here’s what it means:
- Passengers will no longer be able to board or disembark buses at the Columbus Greyhound station.
- This stop will serve exclusively as a transfer point for passengers connecting to other GoBus routes.
This policy change applies to all schedules traveling to or from Columbus and reflects efforts to improve traffic flow and efficiency at this busy location.
A New Columbus Stop Location
To accommodate passengers impacted by the Greyhound stop changes, GoBus has established a new bus stop in Columbus at 306 E Mound St. This new stop will be available on:
- Route D (Express Wooster // Columbus).
- Route E (Van Wert // Columbus).
The addition of this stop provides a convenient alternative for passengers traveling to and from Columbus, ensuring continued accessibility for all travelers.
What Passengers Need to Know
Passengers are reminded that these changes will not take effect until January 2, 2025, and all updated schedules have been highlighted in yellow for easy reference. GoBus encourages travelers to arrive at their stop 15 minutes before departure to ensure a smooth boarding process.
