Waiting for a bus to round the transit terminal is a classic ending to the school day. However, what most students don't realize is that the Razorback Transit serves more than just the needs of students. Some people use the transit system to go to work or to go shopping. The Red Route can drop riders off at Washington Regional Medical Center, Hobby Lobby or Wal-Mart.
Students are often skeptical about non-students who hang out at the bus terminal and ride the buses.
Some students have voiced complaints about having to pay a fee while non-students ride for free. The FTA gives federal financial aid to areas for mass transportation. The federal assistance specifies that the transit system be available to the public. There haven't been any complaints in regard to non-students riding the buses, said UAPD Lt. It's awkward when someone gets on the bus with a bag full of alcohol and reeks of liquor.
