Late Night Transit runs Thursday, Friday听and Saturday evenings during fall and spring semesters and is free to all Buff OneCard holders. All Late Night Transit buses have designated stops, can be flagged along their route, pick up every 10鈥�15 minutes听and end at 3 a.m.
The UMC/Pearl and Hill/Pearl routes are provided by HOP buses and begin when HOP service ends at 10 p.m. The Hill/Williams Village route is provided by Buff buses; it begins when Buff Bus service ends at midnight, weekends only.
Better service for students
After collecting data at the end of the spring semester from hundreds of students about their typical late night trip origins and destinations, 麻豆免费版下载Sustainable Transportation staff found they could improve the routes to better serve areas students frequent most. The three new routes will better serve The Hill and Pearl Street and do so with less time between buses.
鈥淭he new routes get our customers closer to the locations they want to be instead of dropping and picking them up along Broadway, which required a walk for most. With ridesharing services picking up and dropping off directly in front of a student's desired location, we needed to make sure we are competitive with that high level of convenience.
鈥淥ur new routes will be able to offer that level of convenience, enhanced safety, and not cost our students any additional fees,鈥� says Brandon Smith, assistant director of sustainable transportation.听
Late Night Transit is funded by student fees through the Environmental Center's Sustainable Transportation program.
