General Information:

• Our bus system operates scheduled routes which connect residence halls with the Washington Square campus. The system generally operates during the Fall and Spring semesters when classes are in session from 7 a.m. to 12 midnight on weekdays and 10 a.m. to 12 midnight on weekends.
• During the Summer 2009 semesters, Limited Route E Service will be provided on weekday mornings and afternoons between Washington Square and bus stops at the College of Dentistry and Largone Medical Center.
• Free overnight Safe Ride Van Service is provided 7 Days Per Week when Fall & Spring semester classes are in session. Safe Ride is a shared ride, on demand van service, intended to provide safe overnight transportation to and from NYU facilities. Passengers who require transportation during these hours should call the Department of Public Safety at 212-992-VANS (212-992-8267) to request that a Safe Ride van, operated by CoachUSA, would be dispatched. The average wait time for a van is 13-15 minutes, but wait times during busy periods may be longer. Scheduled shuttle trips provide overnight service between those locations listed on the "Safe Ride Van" page of this website on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings, from 12 midnight to 4 a.m. when Fall & Spring semester classes are in session.
• A valid NYU ID is required to board any campus transportation vehicle, and it must be presented to the bus or van operator when boarding. Bus passes are available for guests from residence hall managers or the Department of Public Safety Office at 14 Washington Place.
• Please do not eat or drink while on board any vehicle.
• Vehicles will pick up and drop off passengers at designated stops only. Drivers are not permitted to allow passengers to board after the door has been closed at a bus stop. This rule is for our passengers' safety.
• Scheduled times may be printed from the Department of Public Safety website at www.nyu.edu/ride. Departure as listed within all timetables are approximate, and due to New York City traffic congestion, your trip may be delayed. Please plan your trip accordingly and allow for sufficient time when riding Campus Transportation Services vehicles. Your patience is appreciated when delays occur, and Campus Transportation Services apologizes for any such delays that you may encounter.
