Debes tomar el autobús (colectivo) 71

If it were in Argentina, instead of autobús you would say colectivo.

Just my 2 cents, :-)

agree Patricia Lutteral : en Argentina, también "ómnibus" :-)

Sí, pero ómnibus es vieeeeeeeja, hace años que no escucho a nadie nombrar ómnibus a un colectivo! :-)

el colectivo que debes tomar es el 71

Previous answers are right but,
if you are translating in "argentinian" Spanish, this is the word: colectivo.

Hope it helps!

Tu autobús es el "setenta-y-uno"

A bit "rough" and direct, but it's the easiest to say and to remember. Good luck :)
