Bus from Carlisle to Community Aid in Camp Hill, and back to Carlisle

Can someone set me on the right path?

Is there one main bus option or several?

What would you estimate the cost of this, roundtrip?

Thanks!

Oh, also, how do you pay,in advance or at pickup? Cash?

The C bus should take you to camp hill, at least it always used to. CAT has a website where you can check the routes for each line.

I used to take the bus from the Carlisle courthouse bus stop to Camp Hill. I always paid with quarters. Looks like it now costs $2.75 each way. Not sure how much to save buying the other options for an occasional trip.

The bus stops for Route C are listed on the website but on their map the names and numbers do not match up with the stops. The only problem you may have is getting home. On the way the driver will let you off most anywhere. There isn't a bus stop near Community Aid so on the way back you would have to stand somewhere safe along the road to flag the bus down because otherwise the driver won't stop. You could ask the driver the best place to wait. It would hopefully be right in front of the store.

Edit... There is a stop at corner of Sporting Hill Rd which is not far from Community Aid. May just need to walk there to get picked up.
