Commuting
Moving towards more sustainable forms of transportation
Message from Commuter Services Director Alma Alred
During the past two years gasoline prices have soared. Fortunately,
transit service to the University of Utah has recently increased.
Please join the thousands of U of U students, faculty, and staff who are
sidestepping high gas prices by leaving their car, SUV or truck at home
and commuting to the U on UTA TRAX and/or Bus. We're sure you can find
something better to do with the money you're spending driving back and
forth to campus. Not only will you be saving green, you'll BE green by
leaving your car at home.
Eligible students, faculty and staff can ride
UTA to campus for Free. All you need is your UCard and UTA Ed Pass.
Get your 2007-2008 UTA Ed Pass from Commuter Services, the Union or
Hospital UCard Office, Union front desk or the Campus Store. You must
present a valid UCard for authentication. Riders using the UCard and
UTA Ed Pass will be subject to random spot checks to ensure they are
current U of U students, faculty or staff.
Information regarding the new bus routes is available at the "UTA and U"
Commuter Services website
Information regarding TRAX schedules is available at UTA's website
Remember:
Ditch your car and commute to the U via UTA TRAX and Buses for FREE!
GO GREEN! SAVE GREEN!
