CATS (Campus Area Transit Service)

A free shuttle service for students, faculty/staff & visitors traveling to multiple destinations throughout campus. The service runs on dedicated transit routes Monday - Friday 7 AM - 5:30 PM during Fall & Spring Semesters - service runs by request during Summer & Winter Break.

No pass or ID is needed to ride - simply hop aboard a shuttle at one of our stop locations listed below & let CATS take care of transporting you to your destination. All transit vehicles provide accessibility accommodations.

3/17/2020: Service Update:

CATS services will be suspended until further notice in response to current COVID-19 preparedness measures. 

Bobcat Pass services are still operating during this time with Athens Public Transit. For more information on routes and service times please visit their website here. 

 

Beginning March 2, 2020 Blue Loop will run a modified route and schedule due to the Richland Avenue Pedestrian construction project. The modified route will run on 20-minute loops and service Grosvenor Hall while the Porter Hall stop is inaccessible within the construction zone.
