The University of Chicago will offer complimentary campus UGo Shuttle service for its 540th Convocation on Saturday, June 6.

UGo Shuttles can be tracked in real time via Passio GO!, both on the mobile app and on its website. Passio GO! is also displayed on monitors in the lobbies of several buildings on campus.

For your safety and the safety of all passengers, flag stops can only occur at intersections. To flag a shuttle between stops, customers should safely stand at the intersection to allow the shuttle to safely pull over. To indicate a stop while on the shuttle, pull the cord or ask the driver. The driver will then stop at the next safe intersection.
