Did they use the buses to get people out of the city or to the Super Dome?

What I saw on TV looked like a legion of busses.
Mostly yella painted school type busses being orderly loaded by young guys in military uniforms.

A lady on WLL...Her husband is an official in St. Bernard's Parish. She evacuated, he stayed. She is pleading on the local officials' behalf for any kind of help for St. Bernard's Parish. There is no place that's dry there. The rescuers have no food or water for themselves, let alone for all the people who need rescuing. They need food, water, boats, help getting people out and a place to bring them to.

That's a good question, and I'm confused a little, too.

Did they have a plan to use city buses to get the people out of town before Katrina hit, or did they use them to shuttle them to the Super Dome?
