Campus Safety Transports
During all other times, Campus Safety Officers can transport campus community members, college visitors, and event patrons up to 1.5 miles to and from campus. Exceptions include personal safety-related and medical transports to Urgent Care or the Emergency Room. Campus Safety cannot transport to medical appointments beyond 1.5 miles. Please be patient if you call for a transport. Campus Safety will try to provide timely transport, but it may take longer than anticipated due to other calls or responses on or around campus. During events in Robson Arena, transport will be limited due to numerous road closures.
Inclement Weather Limitations/Cancellations
During inclement weather, when road conditions deteriorate, Campus Safety may limit transport to those returning to their residence only to ensure everyone can get safely home. Campus Safety may pause all non-emergent transport for severe weather and road conditions until conditions improve. Campus Safety will resume regular transport when weather and road conditions improve.
During Breaks
Call to inquire about grocery shuttle availability. Campus Safety may coordinate to combine multiple transport requests into one trip. Availability is subject to staffing.
