BCT All Routes: Express, Breeze and Fixed-Route Service
BCT’s official route list is divided into Express routes, Breeze routes and regular fixed-route service. Use the table below to identify the correct route family before opening a PDF timetable.
| Route group | Routes | Service pattern | Best use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 95 Express | 106, 108, 109 | Weekday express coach service. | Miramar / CB Smith / Miami Civic Center / Downtown Miami commuter trips. |
| 595 Express | 110, 114 | Weekday express coach service. | Amerant Bank Arena / Sunrise to Miami-Brickell or Miami Civic Center. |

🧭 Route-number rule
BCT route PDFs do not all have the same service span. A route marked Full Week is different from a route marked Weekday. Express routes are not local bus replacements and usually run for commute-pattern trips.
How to Read a BCT Timetable: Timepoints, Stops and Live Arrivals
BCT schedules are built around timepoints. The route map shows the exact route, major route intersections are timepoints, and the table lists scheduled departures at those major points. There are usually additional bus stops between timepoints, so your exact stop may not appear in the printed table.
Timepoints are anchors
The PDF table is not every stop. It gives major timed intersections so you can estimate the route pattern.
Bus stop signs matter
BCT buses pick up and drop off at posted Broward County bus stop signs along the route.
Arrive five minutes early
BCT tells riders to be at the stop five minutes early because traffic affects how close buses run to schedule.
- Direction first: choose northbound, southbound, eastbound, westbound or terminal destination before reading times.
- Find nearest timepoint: use the timepoint before your stop, not after it.
- Use live tools: RideBCT or map apps are better when deciding whether to walk now.
- Check alerts: construction, weather, events and detours can change stops or real arrival times.
- Do not trust old PDFs: route schedules can be updated after service changes.
BCT Map and Major Transfer Points: Broward Central, Lauderhill, Northeast and West Regional
The BCT system map is the fastest way to understand how Broward routes connect across the county.
