Shuttle Service

On-campus Shuttle Service 

Shuttle Bus service is designed to help all students, faculty and staff, including individuals with disabilities, navigate the campus. To ensure the safety of drivers and riders, the following guidelines have been established in accordance with applicable executive orders:

Hours of Operation

Shuttles run Main and East Campus routes Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Shuttle buses and trolley buses are accessible to all riders, including people with disabilities.

  • Only use the shuttle service when necessary, as the capacity of each vehicle has been reduced. Signs indicating average walk time to each building are available at pick-up locations.
  • Mask or face covering must be worn at all times by drivers and riders; at stops, entrances and exits, and while in the vehicle.
  • Follow signage for social distancing and safety protocols in waiting areas and on vehicles. 
  • To compensate for the reduced capacity of the vehicles, the fleet on the East Campus route (PDF), the longest route that transports the largest number of passengers, will be maximized during peak hours.

  • Refer to posted signage for social distancing and mask protocols.
  • At each stop, the driver will exit first, allow passengers to exit and new passengers to get on before getting back on the bus. Passengers who are exiting must remain sitting until the driver has exited the bus.
  • No standing will be allowed on any vehicles.
  • Weather permitting, windows will remain open throughout operation.
  • Check the vehicle ID to aid in contact tracing should a positive case be identified.
  • Strict disinfection procedures are in place.
