The Students are facing incommodities with the University shuttle buses. Students that park behind and in front of the baseball park, and for those who park behind the WREC center are facing the issue of arriving late to classes. Students that live in houses or apartments near campus have the same problem. Shuttle buses do not pass every five to ten minutes, and some of the units do not have A/C. They are getting over-crowed and students have to wait for another shuttle to arrive.
In my personal experience I have noticed that the buses pass after 15 minutes. When the busses get crowed you have to wait for another one to come. When this happens, you arrive late to class 10-15 minutes, and that’s when teachers call the roll. In the past week it started to rain. Bus delays can result as illnesses, like catching a flu.
The university should create a new way of working with the Shuttle buses. Posting bus schedules and the buses’ stops would create an organized and punctual system. This will eliminate the issues of arriving late to classes and buses getting full. The university could do an inversion and buy a new bus. More enrollments mean more need to travel from parking lots to college buildings. Student’s fees should be used to eliminate this problem. As more students enroll, more money is being given to the Buses Department. In the future an extra bus will be needed. Instead of using buses, students could use a train-car , like the ones you can find in amusement parks. They have a big capacity and some are electrical, which eliminates the cost of fuel.
The shuttle buses’ issue has to be solved for the interest of students.
