A brief description of the program:
UCLA offers subsidized transit passes with 5 different transit agencies and offers extensive maps and information on getting to campus using public transit. In addition, the FlyAway service is offered for any passengers that need to get to the Los Angeles International Airport. The FlyAway picks up and drops off students just a few blocks south of campus, at a location where the Campus Shuttle can be picked up to travel elsewhere on campus. The Campus Shuttle or BruinBus, operated by UCLA Transportation, provides free shuttle service to locations throughout the campus each weekday (excluding University holidays). On a typical day during the academic year, more than 5,200 rides are taken on the BruinBus. Annually, BruinBus provides nearly 1.1 million rides for UCLA students, employees and visitors. The majority of BruinBus riders are undergraduate students (54%), while graduate students comprise 28% of ridership. Staff and faculty make up 13% and the remaining 5% is made up of visitors, patients, and family members of students or employees.
