Bus Class

A vehicle type of bus: high floor, low floor, over the road coach, vans, or an articulated bus. Bus class can also refer to size: 30-foot, 35-foot, 40-foot, 45-foot, and 60-foot. Sometimes the two terms are used together, for example, “30-foot low floor.” Vans are used for ADA (Americans With Disability Act) riders and riders who live in less accessible areas of the city, such as the hills. High capacity buses (articulated and 40-foot low floors) are assigned to run on heavily populated lines.
