Stay Safe With These Guidelines When Using UB Buses and Shuttles

• Arrive at designated bus stops in advance of scheduled departure times.
• Stay clear of the bus or shuttle until it comes to a complete stop.
• When boarding a UB Stampede bus, use the front door. Use handrails and watch your step.
• If you have a question for the driver, please ask before the bus or shuttle departs; doing so will allow the driver to focus on safe operation of the vehicle.

• Find an available seat and remain seated until the bus or shuttle has fully stopped.
• If you are standing while the bus is in motion, use a handrail or strap to maintain your balance.
• Do not block the aisle with books or bags.
• Never ask the driver to stop at an undesignated bus stop.
• If you have a comment or concern to express about your ride, note the vehicle ID number at the front of the bus, reach out to Parking and Transportation Services at transportation@buffalo.edu, and tell us about it.  

• At your stop, gather your belongings (make sure you have everything!*) and wait for the bus to come to a complete stop before standing up.
• Cross the street behind the bus. This helps you see and be seen by other motorists.
• If you must cross in front of the bus, walk at least 10 feet ahead of the bus, ensuring the driver can see you.
• Cross in a marked crosswalk whenever possible.
• Keep an eye out for oncoming vehicles. Drivers are not required to stop for campus buses and shuttles.

*If you leave something on a bus or shuttle, contact the Parking and Transportation office, 716-645-3943, or email transportation@buffalo.edu. A ‘Lost and Found’ will be checked, or the bus company will be notified, and every effort will be made to reunite you with your belonging(s).
