NITE Ride

NITE RIDE covers areas of campus not serviced by shuttle-um evening routes. 

This additional Shuttle-UM service runs from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. when the university is open and services the immediate campus community. We provide rides to and from anywhere in the NITE Ride service area (shown on map below).

HOW TO REQUEST A NITE RIDE

Use the Transloc app on by logging in with your UID. Then, drag the map (not the pin) to select your pick-up and drop-off locations. You can also call 301-314-3687 (DOTS) to request a NITE Ride.
