Cambus (University Bus Service)

Cambus is the University's mass transit system, and it offers the fastest way to travel the campus. And the price is right—it's free. Used not just by students, but also faculty and staff, Cambus makes the large campus of the University of Iowa much more manageable and navigable.

Hours
Academic year service is provided from 6:30 a.m. to midnight Monday through Friday, and noon to midnight on weekends.

Cambus has limited operation during breaks and summer session, and no service on University holidays.

Nite Ride
The University of Iowa's Nite Ride program offers women free, safe rides home. UI Police use a 15-passenger UI van to transport women from a designated pickup point to their residence halls. To arrange for transportation, women call 384- 1111, the cell number for the van driver. The van is driven by a fully uniformed, full-time UI Department of Public Safety guard. The van is clearly marked with magnetic signs saying Nite Ride and bearing the UI Police patch and the phone number.
