Campus Bus 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Stop at a bus stop with an IU bus sign. These have “Campus Bus Service” written on them. Track the progress of your ride via Double Maps. Wait for a red bus and board for free. To indicate what stop you want to get off at, pull the stop request cord before the next stop. Exit the bus at your destination. Campus buses go through the residence halls and near academic buildings.

These say “Bloomington Transit” and have a number and location to show the route the bus will take and the main destination. Track the progress of your ride via Apple Maps, Google Maps or Double Maps. When the bus arrives, show your Crimson Card and board: all for free! Forgot to grab a mask? That’s ok! Bloomington Transit no longer requires masks. Buses also have bike storage upfront to use. To indicate what stop you want to get off at, pull the stop request cord before the next stop. Exit the bus at your destination. Bloomington Transit routes go through the residence halls, off-campus apartments and local shopping complexes.
