Shuttle Service

The Public Safety Department operates a campus shuttle service that is designed to provide safe transportation to and from all campus buildings and parking lots. The shuttle service is available to all members of the campus community.

With the exception of those locations noted below, the MSOE shuttle service is primarily a campus safety service designed to go to and from MSOE campus buildings, parking lots and the student parking structure. The MSOE shuttle service boundaries are: N. Market St. on the west, N. Van Buren St. on the east, E. Ogden St. on the north, and E. Wells St. on the south (view map).

All requests for shuttle service must originate or terminate at an MSOE building, parking lot, or the student parking structure. Requests for the campus shuttle service that are from an off-campus location to an off-campus location are NOT provided.

The hours of the shuttle service are as follows:

Sunday 3:45 p.m. - 12 midnight
Monday - Thursday 7:15 a.m. - 12 midnight
Friday: 7:15 a.m. - 5:45 p.m.*


Note:  Shuttle service is suspended (no shuttle service) from 12 noon to 12:30 p.m. and from 8:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. due to the driver's required 30 minute lunch period.

* On Friday from 3:15 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. the shuttle service is restricted to on-campus conveyances only, i.e. to and from campus buildings, parking lots, and the student parking structure. Off-campus shuttle conveyances end at 3:15 p.m. on Friday.

Requests for Shuttle Service
Requests for the campus shuttle service are processed in the order they are received and individuals requesting campus shuttle service occasionally may experience a delay in service due to other pending requests for this service. As a service to the students, the shuttle driver will attempt to provide an estimated time of arrival for the shuttle pick-up when the call for service is first received. However, students need to keep in mind that this is only an estimate and the actual pick-up time can vary from the estimated time due to the number of pending calls at the time; the amount of traffic on the road; and the current weather conditions.

The shuttle does not operate on Friday nights or on Saturdays, student breaks, quarter breaks, holiday breaks and during the summer months.

While we do everything we can to make sure the shuttle service is available during the stated hours of operation, this service is not guaranteed due to unexpected staffing shortages or mechanical breakdown of the shuttle vehicle.
