UAF Shuttle Services has a new shuttle tracker in place that's near real time. The previous version had a 45-second lag. This one is much closer to real time and available at www.uafshuttle.com. The new system tracks shuttles and helps count the passengers who ride each day. Notices about reduced hours or route changes will also be posted on the tracker at the top of the page.

There are four fixed shuttle routes: Red, Gold, Blue and Green. Campus shuttles are also on-call for transportation to the various off-campus UAF locations and to locations after 7:30 p.m. The shuttles are free and available to anyone who wants a ride.

You may also  notice improvements in the phone system if you call the shuttle at 474-RIDE (7433). For more information visit UAF Shuttle Services at www.uaf.edu/fs/services/shuttlebus/ or at their Shuttle Services Facebook page.
