So, I live on the Stoney Creek mountain (By #20), and I will be busing to MAC everyday, and I'm just wondering what the quickest/easiest way down would be. Could I take the 44 down to eastgate then take the b-line? Would that work? Any help would be appreciated!

Have you tried using google maps to find the quickest route? I know when you put in your start and end location, google maps offers you the ability to plan it using public transit.
Its quite useful, IMO.

i've tried it but it dosen't give me the most efficient route, it gives me like 3 transfers, so I'm just wondering if there is a quicker way

Post your address? (or nearest two streets that cross?)

Upper Centennial Pkwy & Highland Rd W

EDIT: nvm...

I have tried that too, and it tells me to take the b-line a kenelworth, but doesn't the b-line stop at eastgate too?

Yup, taking b-line from Eastgate would probably be the best. Takes about 30 mins to get to Mac from there, only downside being that b-line doesn't actually go inside the campus, but its only a couple mins walk to most buildings from Main St.

And to get back home, either take the bus from the hospital or the stop across the hospital. Last one leaves 7:00 pm I think (after that you have to rely on the 1/1A, which takes about the same time since less people on the bus at nighttime)
