Loop Bus New Route Schedules (.pdf), effective June 28, 2010

Holiday Service and Schedule changes for 2010-2011 

The Dutchess County LOOP Bus system cannot assume responsibility for delays or failure to make connections caused by vehicular traffic, weather conditions, mechanical failure, shortages of manpower or equipment.  Bus schedules, equipment and fares are subject to change without notice.

The times on the schedules are time points and the bus will stop if hailed anywhere along the route that is safe to pull over. The buses do not stop at thoroughfares or intersections where cars are making right-hand turns.

Our fare is $1.75 per zone and customers can pay when boarding the bus. (Drivers cannot make change, exact fare is required.)

The LOOP information telephone line is (845) 485-4690 and is available Monday through Friday between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Inquiries can also be sent via Your Dutchess Direct, our automated response system - Go to Your Dutchess Direct   Full-time 24 hour fax or automated response support is NOT available.  We will respond to your fax or automated request as soon as possible.
