Safety and Transportation 

Bear Line Shuttle

Bear Line MapBear Line offers a convenient and safe way to travel -- no matter where your destination on campus. Just JUMP ON from any of the well-lit, covered shuttle stops conveniently located across campus. Shuttles are climate controlled and offer a comfortable ride. No individual fares will be charged to any passenger. Buses are specially equipped for persons with disabilities.

Commuters -- leave the driving to us!

Bear Line can help take the pressure off finding a parking place in crowded lots. Simply park in one of the spacious, covered parking garages -- Bear Park North, located off John Q. Hammons Parkway with entrances on Cherry and Elm Streets, and Bear Park South, located at the intersection of Holland and Grand -- and catch the shuttle. Just be sure to arrive about 15 minutes early to allow plenty of time to reach your destination.

 

Shuttles operate on weekday routes (Gold, Blue, Red, Green, Orange, Purple, Maroon) from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday - Friday.  Also in operation is an evening shuttle route (Maroon) from 6:00 p.m. – 12:30 a.m. during fall and spring semesters, Sunday-Wednesday;  6 p.m. - 2 a.m. Thursday. The shuttles run every 5-12 minutes. Drivers make every effort to operate on schedule; however, slight variations may occur. (See chart below for more details.)
