Reading the bus schedule, we can see that Bus A leaves the hospital at 08:25 and arrives at the school at 08:47.Īgain both times have the same hour of 8 o’clock. In this next example we are asked, “How long does it take Bus A to get from the hospital to the school?” We can see that from 08:00 to 08:10, the bus has taken 10 minutes. The hours are the same as they are both 8 o’clock. We now find the difference between these times. Reading the schedule, Bus A leaves the market at 08:00 and arrives at the cinema at 08:10. We then find the difference between these times. We need to find the time when Bus A leaves the market and the time it arrives at the cinema. In this next example we are asked, “How long does it take Bus A to get from the market to the cinema?” It is 11:50, so I have already missed the 08:10 and 10:32 buses. We need to read the times of the different buses that leave the cinema.
In this next example, “I am at the cinema and it is 11:50. After the hospital stop, the bus arrives at the school.
We now read downwards to see the rest of the journey after it leaves the hospital. We first find the hospital station in the left column and read across from this row to find the bus that leaves at 12:42. “I catch the 12:42 bus from the hospital. Here is an example of reading a bus timetable. We can see that Bus B leaves the market at 10:20, leaves the cinema at 10:32, leaves the hospital at 10:48 and arrives at the school at 11:10.īus C leaves the market at 12:20, leaves the cinema at 12:26, leaves the Hospital at 12:42 and arrives at the School at 13:11.īus D leaves the market at 16:55, leaves the cinema at 17:10, leaves the hospital at 17:33 and arrives at the school at 18:01. The only case where this is not true is in the final location, where the time shown is the time that the bus or train arrives at this stop. It is possible for the bus or train to arrive earlier than this time but if it does, it should wait at this location until the time written on the timetable. When reading a timetable, the time shown is the time that we leave that location. We can see Bus A’s journey begins at the market at 08:00. We have four different buses: Bus A, Bus B, Bus C and Bus D, which are each in their own column. Each new bus journey is written in its own column.īelow is an example of a bus timetable being created. Now read downwards from a chosen time to see what time this bus reaches the coming destinations.Ī bus timetable is written in columns. The times that each bus leaves this station are in the same row to the right.
To read a bus timetable, look down the left column to find the name of the station you are at.
