Saferide Shuttle added services April 12-14

[Alexa K Martin]

Dear Undergraduates,

Please note the following temporary changes to the SafeRide Shuttle program that will be in place during Campus Preview Weekend to accommodate the many admitted students who will be on campus.

Campus Preview Weekend (CPW) SafeRide Shuttle changes
April 12, 13, and 14 only

The SafeRide Shuttle program is available evenings starting at 6 PM and shifts into an OnDemand mode at 11 PM each night. During CPW for the 11 PM – 3:30 AM time period, the MIT Parking and Transportation Office will extend service for two fixed-route Saferide Shuttles – the Boston East and Cambridge West/Brookline routes. The OnDemand shuttles will also continue to operate during their normal hours of 11 PM – 3:30 AM. This extension of the two fixed-route shuttles will be in place to accommodate prospective students who do not have an MIT ID and therefore do not have access to the OnDemand TransLoc application.

Please note that this schedule will be in place from April 12–14 only and the regular SafeRide schedule will resume on April 15.
