Help Me

The small stuff

MATBUS covers the metro and the campuses, and it is easy to use once you know it. The first week is the hard part. A neighbor can save you a missed bus.

Short answer

On Help Me you can ask a neighbor about MATBUS in Fargo, West Fargo, or Moorhead: which route goes where, where a stop is, how a transfer works. It is local knowledge, not official schedule information. For current routes and times, use MATBUS directly. Help Me does not arrange transportation.

The facts, in one place

  • A neighbor can tell you which bus and which stop.
  • MATBUS is the official source for routes and times.
  • Help Me does not arrange transportation.
  • Winter changes how long you can wait at a stop.

The first-week questions

Which route goes to campus. Where the stop actually is. How to transfer between the Fargo and Moorhead sides. What the last bus is on a weeknight. These are small questions with big consequences for someone without a car, and a neighbor who takes the bus can answer them in a sentence.

  • Which route to take to campus or work.
  • Where the stop actually is.
  • How to transfer across the river.
  • When the last bus of the evening runs.

MATBUS is the official source

MATBUS publishes routes, schedules, and updates. Check the official source for current information, especially in winter, when delays and detours happen. A neighbor can describe how a route feels in practice, but only MATBUS can tell you what it runs today.

Winter changes the calculation. A bus that runs every half hour is a real wait at fifteen below. Dress for the stop, not the trip.

Not a driver

Help Me does not arrange transportation of any kind. A neighbor is not a driver, and asking for a lift is not what the app is for. Meet in a public place if the question needs a meeting at all. Helpers can apply to be reviewed by our team. Help Me does not run background checks. You can report or block any member at any time.

Help Me is not an emergency service. If someone is in immediate danger, call 911 or your local emergency number.
