Bus 309 route

Route number is 309. Remember it—the number stays the same everywhere: on the stop display, in apps, on the vehicle itself. Look for 309 specifically. If you're not sure you found the right stop, just ask someone nearby: 'Does bus 309 stop here?'

This route serves the Nanjing (China) region. In larger metro areas, routes can pass through several districts or towns. To know for sure if it works for you, pull up the route map and check the key stops and direction.

Starting point is 天旺路. Usually at the first stop there's a turnaround or layover space where drivers rest between runs. If you want to guarantee a seat, get on here—the vehicle is just starting out and still mostly empty.

Final stop is 南京站·南广场东. Everyone gets off here, the vehicle turns around and heads back after a few minutes. Missed your stop? No big deal—just ride to the end and come back on the same route.

Operator is 南京公交公司. This is the official company responsible for the route. If you run into problems (rude driver, breakdown, dirty vehicle, delays)—contact them. It helps to note the time, direction, and route number—makes your complaint more specific and gets handled faster. Contact info is usually on the company website or in transit apps.

On transit maps this route is marked in cyan. Color helps you spot the line quickly and tell it apart from others. In some cities the line color appears on stop signs or even on the vehicles themselves. The exact shade might vary between sources—go by route number and endpoints instead.
