Record Number Of Student Bus Riders

The ASUM-Office of Transportation gave 397,744 rides during the 2010-2011 academic year. The new record includes riders who used the South Park-N-Ride, East Broadway Park-N-Ride, College of Technology shuttle and U-DASH, the late-night bus, as well as special shuttles such as those offered for home football games and Commencement. Director of  Transportation, Nancy Wilson, says replacing single-car drivers and getting students, faculty and staff in the buses creates a sustainable environment for the community.

Wilson, says this upcoming academic year the student bus system will boost their services; the East Broadway Park-N-Ride will be changed from 20-minute bus service to 10-minute bus service and the late-night U-DASH bus will change from a half-hour service to 15-minute service on Friday and Saturday nights.
