Campus Shuttle and TCAT Bus Schedules

For Cornell staff and students, the best way to get between the Lab and Cornell campus is to take the free Lab shuttle. It runs on weekdays during the fall and spring semesters. The shuttle does not run during summer break or other student breaks during the academic year. The shuttle is only available for Cornell staff and students. Visitors should take the TCAT bus. Shuttle and TCAT schedule information are listed below.
