Campus Bus Routes Begin Fall Semester Service

LEXINGTON, Ky. (Aug. 20, 2012) ― University of Kentucky Parking and Transportation Services (PTS) has announced the CATS Summer/Break Route will continue to run through Tuesday, Aug. 21. This will ensure that areas such as Greg Page Apartments and Cooperstown have bus service until the regular Lextran service starts running.

CATS On-Demand bus service began Sunday, Aug. 19. Call (859) 221-RIDE to make a pick-up request. The Red, Blue and Yellow Nighttime CATS bus routes will resume on Wednesday, Aug. 22, as will campus Lextran service. All CATS buses and campus Lextran buses are free to ride.

Riders can view the actual location of all CATS buses on all routes by using Cat Tracker, a real-time GPS-based bus locating system. Visit http://uky.transloc.com. You can also track the buses via the free Transloc iPhone, Android and BlackBerry apps, by using your smart phone to scan the QR codes found on each bus stop sign or by using the SMS codes found at each bus stop.

More information about all the bus routes, including maps and schedule, can be found at www.uky.edu/pts/buses-and-shuttles_campus-shuttles.
