Butler Transit Authority
Encyclopedia
Butler Transit Authority, operating as TheBus, is a public transportation service located in Butler, Pennsylvania
. The goal of the service is to provide mass transit access for the central portion of the county. However, no bus routes run to the heavily suburbanized southern portion of the county. The Port Authority of Allegheny County
provides several bus routes that terminate just south of the rapidly growing suburb of Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania
(providing park and ride options), but no fixed bus lines traverse this area. The agency does not provides its own commuter access to Pittsburgh. Instead, the private Myers Coach Lines is in charge of this service on weekdays and coordinates its stops with the transit authority. The Pittsburgh service also travels to a 35 space park and ride lot in Penn Township
