Catsride (Faculty/Staff Only)

Catsride is a service that connects off-campus UVM offices with one another and also with the main UVM campus. The service is available to all faculty and staff and serves offices, classrooms, and lab locations within a ten-mile radius of campus. Eligible Catsrides are scheduled on a first come, first served basis and can be scheduled up to a month in advance. Planning ahead guarantees you a ride at the most convenient time. To schedule a ride, you can contact us at: catsride@uvm.edu. If you need a ride on the same day, please call the shuttle directly at (802) 233-2594.
Please note that in order to connect GMT's Montpelier and Middlebury Link Express service with our Colchester sites, Catsride will provide a daily pick up at 7:45am (Monday through Friday) at the UVM Medical Center stop.

**Times are Subject to Change

The CATS transportation system provides safe and convenient shuttle service to the UVM community (students, staff, and visitors). The goal of the service is to support alternatives to driving and to help reduce the number of vehicles traveling on city streets and parking in lots on campus.  CATS buses are run by either compressed natural gas (CNG), Hybrid Electric/Diesel or Diesel. The CATS system is handicapped accessible.
