Liberty University offers one of the most comprehensive transportation systems found at large institutions.  The goal is to make a 20 minute cross campus commute possible without the use of a personal vehicle with the focus on the reduction of dependency on single occupancy vehicles.  The 14 bus fleet includes 6 brand new Gillig low floor buses and one hybrid diesel-electric bus operating a 10 route system. Service is provided over 140 hours per week and service is as frequent as every 2-3 minutes during peak schedule.  Liberty has partnered with the Greater Lynchburg Transit Company (GLTC) to operate the campus transit system and the U-PASS program.  With U-PASS, all current resident students and employees can also ride the 15-route GLTC system free of charge all year.  LU Transit also provides no cost park and ride options and the carpool program.

New Service to Cornerstone

Liberty University, Cornerstone, and GLTC have partnered to provide a new direct commuter service to the Cornerstone properties.  Service will operate between 7 AM - 7 PM during class days.  The new route is labeled as Route 15 and will make stops at Campus North and DeMoss Hall.  Route 15 will also make two loops around the Cornerstone properties before leaving for the campus.

This is an excellent way to save up to $600 per year on transportation costs.  You can still get a free Commuter Nights and Weekends parking permit which will allow you to drive to campus after 4:30 PM on weekdays, all day on weekends or LU holidays, and finals/orientation week.
