Any other stops besides downtown?




Any other stops besides downtown?

Do any Woodlands park and rides make stops before you get to downtown? I need transportation from The Woodlands to the Greenspoint area, but it appears that the buses only stop once they get to downtown. Is this correct? Is there another source?

Thanks I saw that, but its no where near where I need to be. I need to leave The Woodlands and stop near Greens Road and I-45 or Beltway 8, or even the Kuykendahl Metro park and ride.

Nope - The Woodlands Express stops Downtown, Greenway and Medical Center - that's it.

Hey Connie....I drove people around for like three months to make money for Christmas one year. I can drive you there if you need to every once in awhile if you will help me with gas money for it. Otherwise...no problem

Thanks I'll keep you in mind! I'm ok for now, but I don't know how long my transportation will hold out, so I was researching options now in preparation for later!

I have never ridden the bus downtown from here. I imagine it would be pretty stress free. Since all the new building downtown, I am not as familiar with parking as I used to be, so, taking the bus might be a great alternative. Has anyone here ridden downtown on the bus?

I learned how to get through downtown on that bus!!! But i took the 59 one though since id be in Humble working...it can get crazy sometimes...so do not carry much...keep your eyes open and your ears well aware of what is going on around you...one time though my schedule got moved i ended up going on Greyhound from Houston to Tx to fix the problem. I just pretended i was a mute...no one bothered me...

We have a friend that rides the bus and I always love his posts on FB regarding his bus rides....the bus breaks down, car fire in the HOV lane and he is stuck, bus runs late....the list goes on. It has made me have no desire to ride the bus.

I can imagine it can get challenging, especially, when someone wrecks in the HOV lane.

I've considered taking it but haven't really been able to figure out the stops (I know they list them, but I've seen the Woodlands Express make other stops closer to my office than the posted ones.) I've never taken it because the schedule doesn't really line up with what I would need. It wouldn't save me any time but it would be nice not to worry about what all the other drivers are doing and just relax with a book. Some days I get to work feeling exhausted from dealing with the traffic.
