Bus Updates
If you received an e-mail from the Bursar's Office stating that location-based fees have been waived, you are still able to keep your Transit Pass Active and retain access to the Bike Program services. If you would like keep these active, please email buspass@colorado.edu with the following language:
We do not determine eligibility for waiving fees due to all-remote or hybrid remote/online classes. Please contact the Bursar’s Office at 303-492-5381 or bursar@colorado.edu if you have questions about waiver eligibility. If you aren't a fully remote learner, please see this website for eligibility requirements on refunding your Bus Pass Fee through the Environmental Center's Bus and Bike Program.
Similar to the last few summers, Graduate student employees who are employed at least 15% of time during the summer and have job codes of 1502, 1503, 1505, and 1506 will have their summer passes activated and paid for as part of their benefits package. All eligible passes have successfully had their suspensions removed for the summer.
CU Boulder is partnering with Transit for real-time tracking of Buff Buses including the late-night routes. Riders can receive alerts for Buff Bus route changes/detours in real time. This will help riders consolidate their transportation needs, making Buff Bus tracking available on an app riders already use to track other services like RTD, the Hop and B-Cycle.
Download the Transit app (and select Buff Bus in your settings) for real time Buff Bus information including real-time arrival predictions, simple trip planning, service alerts and more.
Get Transit on Google Play or in the Apple Store.
