Common Questions About This Route
We've gathered all the essentials based on open data. Straight answers to the questions people ask most often.

What number is assigned to this route?

Route number is 3. Remember it—the number stays the same everywhere: on the stop display, in apps, on the vehicle itself. Look for 3 specifically. If you're not sure you found the right stop, just ask someone nearby: 'Does bus 3 stop here?'

Where does bus #3 run?

This route serves the Columbus (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.

Who's the official operator?

Operator is Central Ohio Transit Authority. 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.

Which transit system does it belong to?

This route is part of the 'COTA' transit system. Within one network, payment and transfer rules are often consistent. Terms can differ though, so check current fares and payment methods in up-to-date sources before your trip.

What color is the route on maps?

On transit maps this route is marked in #00205B. 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.

Can you board with a wheelchair?

Yes. Accessibility usually means low-floor entry with ramps and designated spaces. Even when accessibility is stated, conditions can vary on specific vehicles and stops. If this is critical, check the vehicle type for your specific trip and confirm ramp/entry availability beforehand.
