Midtown Customer Service Booth Relocation
RTS has temporarily relocated amenities available to customers. The Midtown Customer Service booth has relocated to the Greyhound/Trailways Retail booth in the corner section of Midtown Plaza.  The relocation was necessary to prepare for the demolition of Midtown Plaza. The RTS Customer Service booth will remain in its new locations for approximately four months, or until the completion of a downtown customer service center.

For more information, please call RTS Customer Service at 585-288-1700 or TTY 585-654-0210.
