RTS Bus Service
Go RTS Fares Pilot Program
UF and RTS are currently operating a pilot program to test the GoRTS Fares app for boarding on both Campus Connector shuttles and RTS Route 150. Campus Connector riders will need to download GoRTS Fares and create a free account using their UF email address. Each UF-affiliated account will then receive a unique code to be scanned for boarding.
The Regional Transit System bus service is owned and operated by the City of Gainesville, and UF contracts with RTS to provide fare-free transportation for students, faculty and staff with a valid Gator 1 ID.
Get where you need to go quickly, avoid parking hassles, and save money – all by using RTS!
Route 150 Service Changes
Please be aware that service for RTS Route 150 has changed as shown below beginning Monday, May 6, 2024:
- No service will be provided from 9:30 AM – 3:30 PM daily
- Service will be provided every half hour from 6:30 – 9:30 AM and 3:30 – 6:30 PM, Monday – Friday during weeks when UF classes are in session
- Service will be provided every hour from 6:30 – 9:30 AM and 3:30 – 6:30 PM, Monday – Friday during UF break weeks
- No service will be provided on UF holidays
Additional information regarding this service change:
- We consistently monitor all bus routes to ensure we are providing the best service for our ridership with available resources. In reviewing this route, we determined that removing the off-peak mid-day service would allow us to continue providing peak morning and afternoon service for Route 150 over the summer semester and beyond.
- The changes being implemented during UF holidays and break weeks were made to bring this route in alignment with all other UF bus routes.
- TAPS will continue to evaluate all routes and make modifications as needed.
