Come on down and learn all about the Bus of the Future, including new technologies such as alternative-fuel engines, Real-Time Bus tracking, and Select Bus Service vehicles. All of these innovations are making the rides safer, faster, and better for the environment.

The museum’s collection of vintage buses will also be on display, so you can hop aboard and see what bus travel used to be. Then visit the IdeaLab to design and build your own vision of the perfect bus of the future. Suitable for all ages.
