Home MenuEvening Routes & Schedules - Nightside Service
JTS' "Nightside" service meets your requests for expanded service into the evening hours with three convenient routes that will connect with jobs, services, and community life until 10:15 p.m., Monday through Friday. "Nightside" goes where you need and want to go inside Janesville: the Milton Avenue/US 14 northside commercial area; downtown to the library, shopping, and services; west to medical clinics and the Court Street corridor; south to UWW at Rock County for night classes and neighborhood shopping; east to school and youth activities; and home again! The "Nightside" routes cover the City once each hour beginning at 6:15 p.m., and just like during the day, you can transfer from route-to-route to get where you need to go. Our beautiful Downtown Transfer Center is open until 10:15 p.m. with its brightly lighted exterior platform, climate-controlled waiting room, and restrooms for your safety and convenience. Our Dispatcher is on duty at the Transfer Center during the evening hours to assist you in using the "Nightside" service, selling tokens and passes, and making change. There is also a change machine inside the waiting room at the downtown Transfer Center.

Here's how Route Deviation works:
- Route Deviation Pickup: Consult a Nightside schedule to find out when the bus will be at a point closest to your location. At least 1 hour before the bus is scheduled to arrive at that location, call the JTS Dispatcher to request a route deviation pick-up. Please give the dispatcher your address or the name of the intersection nearest to you. The Dispatcher will tell you where to wait for the bus and the approximate time (within 5 minutes or so) that you can expect to be picked up. Please remember to allow enough time to get to the bus stop from where you are when making your call.
- Route Deviation Drop Off: When you board the bus, if you wish to be dropped off somewhere off the published route, please inform the driver right away! Give the driver the name of the intersection or the name of the facility that you wish to go to. This will allow the driver to contact the Dispatcher and plan ahead for the time needed to get you to your desired destination.
There is no extra charge for Route deviation service.
