CAMBUS will operate academic service with some modifications for spring 2022 semester beginning Tuesday, Jan. 18. CAMBUS will provide academic weekend services on Monday, Jan. 17 due to the university holiday. 

Services were increased on some routes and decreased on others to best allocate available staffing resources to current service demands. CAMBUS continues to make efforts to increase staffing so that service can be restored to routes that have faced reductions since fall 2021. 

Riders should use the Transit App to see estimated departures or see schedules on the Routes, Schedules, and Maps webpage.
