cancelled stops should be in red

if road closures or other problems are going to interrupt service, the schedule should reflect that, instead of blankly saying “bus arriving in 5 minutes”. it might take work but this seems like a critical feature; cut down on people waiting for a ghost bus and being disappointed.

Money hungry

Upgraded my phone payment account transferred but not my monthly card I paid for

Number 10 bus

Never shows up . How many time’s does it run a day ? Twice? Four number 12 have past . Zero ten in forty minutes.

App is faulty and buses are always late

This app always has some type of problems, buses are usually late this only things that’s working fine is the updates the public get of the route changes.

Needs improvement

I do wanna start this off by saying that I love the drivers they are wonderful, but the app is so terrible. It needs improvement at one point it told me that my ride had arrived, but I was out front and nobody was there another time it says someone’s on the way and next thing you know they get pushed back 30 minutes. The app needs improvement. It tries to pick where you need to be picked up and it’s a long walk away so the app needs to be updated severely.

Welcome to CDTA!

I’m unsure if I got on a bus that arrived 9 minutes late or a bus that’s 6 minutes early.

Absolute trash

This public transportation system is an absolute joke of a service.

The drivers either come late or early and sometimes you’ll be outright ignored at a stop and and left.

This service is basically a gamble of maybe making it to your destination, late or early and in some cases not at all.

I absolutely hate this poor excuse of a service and I feel sorry for anyone who has to actually rely on them for transportation anywhere.

If there was any other option for a public transportation service, other than being absolutely robbed by Uber or Lyft, I would never give any business to CDTA.

Not to mention, that more than half of the drivers for CDTA do not know how to drive the vehicle. The drivers drive too fast and you have to deal with constantly being break checked, which is an awful experience.

If you take care of any elderly people, whether it be friends or family, do not let them use this service because they’re safety will be in jeopardy, due to the constant break checking and reckless driving by the majority of the CDTA drivers.

I sincerely hope that this company goes out of business, or that maybe they can find a way to hire drivers that actually care even 1% about their passengers and their job.

If I could give them less than one star I would.

The bottom line is that you should do your absolute best to avoid using this service or giving this company any business until they either go out of business or find competent drivers.

Navigator App

Very easy n convenient way to find all bus routes and pay for fare. Definitely a big help when on the go.

12 pésimo servicio

El 12 ve que viene la gente corriendo y ve que va llegando y se va pésimo servicio es siempre una mujer

9.5

Great convenient app I give it a 9.5 my only issue is that once you confirm your fare it’s gone it should see that it wasn’t used and the fee ones should go back automatically because a few times I confirmed a fare and it was an out of service bus and the next bus came after the time allotment

Frustrating

When it works, it’s great to be able to scan the QR code on my phone for my fare. The main problem comes when trying to add funds. If you need to add a debit or credit card to your account to fund your Navigator account, without fail you get an error message stating your card information isn’t correct and it won’t let you upload the card. You have to actually call and give your card details over the phone to a customer service rep (not ideal if you’re in public). If it’s a weekend, you better hope you have change between your couch cushions, because the sales department doesn’t work weekends.

Terrible

Your app dosent work at all

Never accurate

This app is very so accurate. People rely on this to get to and from work. I’ve been waiting over 20 minutes for the 182 that was supposed to be here 7 mins ago

i love da bus

and da bus loves me

never works

this app barley ever works for me and will just keep my money hostage while i have to pay the full fare price over & over please fix you app, many people NEED it. it’s 10 pm i need to get home from works. smh

Irregular service

Cannot login or pay for passes

Zero degree of accuracy

The app will only cause you to miss the bus.

One Star is FAR Too Many

I’m unsure if I got on a bus that arrived 9 minutes late or the bus that 5 minutes early. And that’s usually how it goes. The app is disgustingly and constantly inaccurate, including busses like the one just mentioned, it’s impossible to plan your own schedule based on the information provided in this app.
Honestly, one star is FAR too many for the consistent delays in service, the inaccuracy of the app, the disregard of your drivers, your clear inability to tell time or share any usable information with your “customers” (we don’t have a choice- that’s why you have customers.)

Fix the app

I put the right card information in 5 times and it says it’s incorrect

Wonderful service

Wonderful drivers. I respect and appreciate the job they do. Riders can be rude and difficult at times, they do the best the can to make everyone’s ride as safe and enjoyable as possible
