Then, shuttles will return to the Health Sciences lot and continue this route until 4:00pm, which is the football game kick-off.
Coming back to your cars after the Football game:
Shuttles will pick guests up on 14th Street where you were dropped off beginning at halftime and ending 1 hour after the football game ends. They will make two stops on their route:
- First, shuttle will drop folks off at the Main Campus Student Center.
- Second, they will drop everyone else off at the Health Sciences lot.
The Park & Ride Shuttles will read “FAMILY WEEKEND” across the front. There will be multiple shuttles running on game day, so it is important that you only use the “FAMILY WEEKEND” buses for the Park & Ride Shuttle.
