Campus SafetyShuttles and Escorts
HWS Shuttle Service
Campus Safety organizes the operation of the campus shuttle programs. The night shuttle program runs each night of the week during the academic year. The “Daily Express” shuttle runs Monday through Friday to and from the Arts Campus only during daytime hours. This specialized shuttle will pick-up on campus on Pulteney St. in front of Coxe/Gulick Halls, and at the Arts Campus at Houghton House and the Katherine D. Elliott Studio Arts Center. The stops and times for each shuttle program are listed below. Students are encouraged to download the BusWhere for HWS mobile app. This free app is available for both iOS and Android and allows users to view shuttle routes and see the shuttle(s) moving along their route in real time. Users must create a Buswhere for HWS account and log in to the mobile app with those credentials.
Students who wish to use the shuttle do not need to call for a ride, but will need to plan ahead and be at the designated shuttle stop when the shuttle is scheduled to arrive. Drivers must maintain a tight schedule in order to arrive at stops on time. Drivers are not allowed to stop anywhere other than the designated stops and will only wait at each stop for a brief amount of time. Drivers may not stop if they do not see any potential passengers waiting and they need to make up time to get back on schedule.
SAFETY ESCORTS
Campus Safety Officers are available to act as an escort for students with special needs and any students when they require a safe way to get around campus, especially students who are walking alone after dark.
If you need an escort, please contact the Office of Campus Safety (ext. 3656) from a safe location and wait there until a uniformed officer picks you up. Campus Safety does not typically provide this service during the hours that the Campus Shuttle is operating unless there are unusual circumstances.
SAFE TRAVEL TIPS
- Walk in pairs (trios are better); do not walk alone.
- Walk in well-lit areas
- Plan your route. Remember the location of safe areas and emergency phones.
- Use designated walkways.
- Tell someone of your destination and expected time of return.
- Do not carry large amounts of cash.
- Do not stop for strangers.
- Do not hitchhike.
Regional Transportation Service
In addition to the Colleges’ shuttle system, students have access to the Regional Transportation Service (bus system) operating with Ontario County with a variety of stops in Geneva (route 261), and connecting them to the Canandaigua and Rochester area. The Colleges’ near campus stop is across from Jackson, Potter, and Rees Halls (on-campus) with stops to Walmart, Wegmans, and other local destinations. RTS has connections at the Geneva Transit Hub. The local bus system is $1 per rider, and more information, such as additional stops and schedules, can be found here.
