• Offloads computations to user, resulting in reduced server load

Tips:

• Internet Explorer tends to run the calculations slowly. Mozilla Firefox is recommended.
• If you want to see a later shuttle, be sure to select your desired departure time in the "Advanced" menu.
• If you get the message "A script on this page is causing your computer to run slowly...", click "Continue" anyway. There are lots of possible routes that the program is comparing.
• Specifying a minimum number of transfers greater than 0 forces the program to check for routes that may be faster when involving a transfer than remaining on a single bus, although the program will still suggest a non-transfer route if it happens to be fastest. For Grand Forks CAT, setting Minimum Transfers = 2 is advised. Caution:Setting Minimum Transfers greater than 2 could take a very long time.
