The University of Nebraska-Lincoln College of Engineering is partnering with Arrow Stage Lines to offer free bus service between Lincoln and Omaha each weekday for students, faculty and staff, while classes are in session.
Any students and employees within the University of Nebraska system may use the shuttle, with priority given to those in the College of Engineering. Capacity for the buses is 40 riders. The college does not guarantee the shuttles have space for every rider per session; seats are first-come, first-serve.
Two buses designed for the College of Engineering will start their circuits at 8 a.m. – one leaving from Othmer Hall on City Campus (Lincoln), and the other leaving from the Peter Kiewit Institute on Scott Campus (Omaha). The buses will also make stops at University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha and at I-80 Exit 439.
Shuttle service begins at 8 a.m., with the last buses leaving at 6 p.m. from Othmer Hall and PKI. Free wi-fi is available and no reservations are necessary. The service is available to those with active IDs from UNL, UNO or UNMC. Riders will be asked to scan their university ID as they embark.
Go online (link below) to see the full schedule. You can also track where the buses are in real-time with a new phone app, available soon for download (Apple or Android).
