A Stop/Station Number (#) is a unique identification number for each stop or station within the Metro system. By knowing your Stop or Station Number, you can access arrival information directly without navigating through multiple lines, etc.
We're making plans to place these numbers on our Bus Stop signs on the street. In the meantime, there are many ways to find your Stop or Station Number online. Once you find your Stop or Station Number(s), keep them in a convenient place so you can take them with you on your trips.
