The Office of Parking, Traffic and Transportation is considering purchasing more buses or replacing its current ones based on increased ridership over the past year.
Last year, Campus Transit usually picked up about 400 to 500 riders on a busy night, but that number has recently shot up to 800 to 900, according to Gary Graham, director Office of Parking, Traffic and Transportation director.
Though there are three buses running during working hours, wait times for students can vary during peak traffic times, Graham said.
“We strive to not make it any more than 10 minutes,” he said.
Graham said the University has six Campus Transit buses and two vans, and is currently seeking replacements. The buses are set to be purchased this year or next year, Graham said in an e-mail.
