# Boarding with a stroller

## Tips for how to make boarding CATA with a stroller as easy as possible.

When boarding with a stroller, the driver will lower the bus and/or extend the ramp if you ask. 

Pay your fare, and move to the designated stroller area near the front of the bus. If traveling with a larger stroller, it may be necessary to remove your child and fold the stroller up.

For the safety of your child and all passengers, please keep your stroller out of the aisle. 

Children and strollers ride for free.
