Springfield bus service is a City Utilities layer
In Greene County, Springfield bus questions start with City Utilities, not the county courthouse. City Utilities operates The Bus as a transit division, with fixed-route service, Access Express paratransit information, route maps, trip planning, service alerts, and bus tracking.
That is useful for a resident deciding whether a job, class, appointment, or errand can work without a car. The routes page points riders to maps and schedules, while the main transit page links to trip planning and the rider tools used to see where buses are along a route.
For newcomers, this also explains the local name. “CU Transit” is not a separate city hall department; it is tied to Springfield’s City Utilities system. For county addresses outside Springfield, confirm whether the trip is inside the service area before planning around the bus.
