The Milo Barber Transportation Center, located at 333 6th Street, serves as the primary hub for Rapid Ride, as well as an intercity bus stop for Jefferson Lines. The facility was constructed in 1980 and reopened after renovations on May 26, 2011.[1][2]

Fixed Route Ridership edit

The ridership and service statistics shown here are of fixed route services only and do not include demand response. Per capita statistics are based on the Rapid City urbanized area as reported in NTD data. The reduction in per capita ridership from 2010 to 2011 is a result of the 2010 census numbers replacing the 2000 census numbers.[3]
