Shuttle Services | Transportation Services | Michigan Technological University

Shuttle Capacity Limited Due to Physical Distancing Rules

To help keep our campus and community healthy, face coverings and social distancing are required on all Michigan Tech shuttles. Because we can only accommodate 10 riders at a time on the Husky Campus Shuttle, and only 7 riders at a time on the City Commuter Shuttle, please plan ahead for alternate ways to get to campus in case shuttle is full. We expect all riders to treat their driver and fellow passengers with courtesy and respect. Thanks for your patience and understanding!
