Does the institution offer free or reduced price transit passes and/or operate a free campus shuttle?:
A brief description of the program:
The University operates its own transit system, the University Transit Service (UTS), which is fare-free to all faculty, staff, students, and members of the community. The operating cost of this service is funded by student fees ($79 per semeter, 2011/2012), a subsidy from the University Health System for staff commuter routes, and by a private property management firm for a route that serves their residential housing area. UTS operates 9 fixed routes with varying levels of service year round.
The University also pays a subsidy to the Charlottesville Area Transit (CAT) service to allow University students, faculty, and staff to ride their system fare-free.
