What number is assigned to this route?
Route number is 318. Remember it—the number stays the same everywhere: on the stop display, in apps, on the vehicle itself. Look for 318 specifically. If you're not sure you found the right stop, just ask someone nearby: 'Does bus 318 stop here?'
Where does bus #318 run?
This route serves the Austin (USA) 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.
Is this a circular route?
No. Circular routes run in a closed loop, regular routes go between two endpoints. To avoid going the wrong way, check the destination on the display and confirm direction using a map or stop list.
Is there a fare?
Yes. Payment rules and discounts can differ by region and vehicle type. If it matters to you, verify current fares and ticket/validation requirements before traveling.

Yes. If allowed, still try to avoid rush hour—in a packed vehicle with a bike it's rough for you and everyone else. Check the rules ahead: sometimes you need to fold the bike or buy a separate ticket.
