Need a ride. Take the bus. $2 all day pass

Were a growing city and the public bus system is getting better. So might as well take advantage and save some money. $2 regular fare allows multiple stops and routes all day long. From this screen you can enter your starting point and destination cabq Bus routes  The Transit planner will map out your trip for you via Google maps and include bus times, walking time and distance, and you can send the route to your phone, printer, email or even a link. The drivers my friend and I have encountered have been friendly and helpful, including greeting people boarding and leaving the bus. Customer service on a bus, its a good thing.

Some bus riding tips 
  • Do bring exact amount, bus drivers cant make change. 
  • check the latest time your bus runs to your destination. 
  • bicyclists can store their bike on the front of the bus just remind the driver when you exit. 
  • allow extra time to arrive on time.
