Nothing is scarier on Halloween than... a ghost bus! Illustration of a ghost driving a DDOT bus that says "Halloween"

Happy Halloween from TRU! Let's avoid the biggest fright of the night... a ghost bus!

A ghost bus is one scheduled to appear in the tracker, but doesn't actually show up.

Help report ghost buses by calling DDOT or SMART when they happen, or using the Transit App's Go.
