Free Bus Service!

Thought this might be useful to you all, if you haven't read it yet, particularly for those of you traveling from Nampa & Caldwell. From the Parking & Transportation Service at BSU:

This is a reminder about new bus services for the BSU community to begin August 27th:

1) All bus routes require a current BSU ID and BUS sticker to ride for free. The BUS sticker can be obtained for free at the Campus ID office, SUB info desk, and Parking office.

2) Route 44 from Middleton, Star and Eagle is now free with your BSU ID and BUS sticker. A map and schedule of route 44 is available on-line at http://www.valleyride.org/Portals/1/Rt44MapSked.gif

3) Route 40 and 42 are both free. These routes are combined with a new route 45. These three routes will serve as a link between BSU West and BSU Main Campus and operate from 5:51 AM to final routes just after 9:00 PM. A copy of the schedule can be viewed at http://www.boisestate.edu/parking/BSU%20Enhancement%20Summary%20Revised%20Aug2_1.pdf

Parking for those riding the 40, 42, and 45 routes is available for free at the West Campus, no permit needed. Three important things to remember about this new service:

* Schedule may vary depending upon weather, road conditions, construction, or other event. Riders are encouraged to allow adequate time for such variability
* Last route leaving BSU West departs at 9:15 PM and arrives at BSU Boise at 9:40 PM
* Last route leaving BSU Boise departs at 9:20 and arrives at BSU West at 9:48 PM

4) Route 43 from Caldwell to Boise is also now free, a copy of the map and schedule can be found on-line at http://www.valleyride.org/Portals/1/intercountyskeds/route43info0406.pdf
