Town and Country Transit's Fixed Route bus service works as a flag stop system. There are designated stops for all routes but vehicles may be flagged for a stop at most places along the route.
To "flag" a bus for a ride, position yourself on the correct side of the street well before any major intersection. Then attempt to make eye contact with the driver and raise your arm up and down (not like a hello wave). If safe, the bus operator will stop the vehicle as close to your location as possible.
