What is VandyRide?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

VandyRide, formerly VandyVans, is the university\u2019s nighttime student shuttle service administered by 91³Ô¹ÏÍø Public Safety.<\/p>\n

What are the new shuttle routes?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

VandyRide now features two routes. The Gold Route is an express route from the Peabody campus to main campus. The Black route circulates campus clockwise.<\/p>\n

Where are the shuttle stops located?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Gold Route (express route) stops include Hank Ingram, Village at 91³Ô¹ÏÍø, Blair, Highland Quad and Sarratt\/Rand. The Black Route (circulator route) stops include Hank Ingram, Village at 91³Ô¹ÏÍø, Blair, Highland Quad, Blakemore House, 25th<\/sup> Avenue Garage, Sarratt\/Rand, E. Bronson Ingram and Central Library. Shuttle routes and stops are available here.<\/p>\n

Why were the shuttle stops consolidated?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Shuttle stops with low onboarding and alightings (de-boardings) were consolidated to help streamline the service and improve headways. The current shuttle stops will be monitored this year, and adaptations will be made if needed.<\/p>\n

Are there any amenities at the shuttle stops?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

All VandyRide shuttle stops are marked with signage. The university is planning to install shuttle shelter stops at several VandyRide locations to enhance the user experience. These shelters will have a similar design to the shelter in place between Hank Ingram House and Murray House<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I heard that there is an app I can download that shows the shuttle routes and real-time arrival information. What is the app and where can I download it?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

To access information about VandyRide, students should download the VandySafe app through the Apple or Google Play stores<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What are the hours of operation for the shuttle service?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

VandyRide currently operates a limited service from 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. seven days a week.<\/p>\n

I am a faculty or staff member. Can\u00a0 I use VandyRide?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

VandyRide is intended as a safe means of travelling across campus at nighttime primarily for students, especially undergraduates who may not have personal vehicles. However, anyone from the campus community is able to use VandyRide.<\/p>\n

Why was the name changed from VandyVans to VandyRide?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

VandyRide was formerly called VandyVans, and when it first started, vans were used to transport students. Currently, shuttles are used and the removal of the word \u201cvans\u201d from the name of the service is intended to more accurately describe the service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
