On Board Buses & Light Rail Trains
Every RT operator is in radio contact with the Bus and Light Rail Control Centers and is trained to respond quickly in emergency situations. The more quickly and calmly you let the operator know you need help, the faster assistance can arrive. Officers, Deputies, guards, and RT personnel are available to assist you.

Light Rail Emergency Buttons
Each train is equipped with a red emergency button located in the doorway. In an emergency, press firmly on the emergency button and the operator will notify the Light Rail Control Center, stop the train at the next station, and offer assistance.

At Light Rail Stations or Bus Stops
If no RT personnel are available, go to the nearest public telephone
and dial "
9-1-1." No change is required.
