To make sure that campus is accessible to all people, Parking and
Transportation Services offers various programs to individuals with
disabilities.
Busing
All campus shuttle and Metro Transit buses serving campus are equipped
with wheelchair lifts. If you need extra help boarding a bus (even
if you're not in a wheelchair), feel free to ask the driver to use
the lift. Please be sure to find a space on the sidewalk that is
clear of snow and other barriers so the lift can do its work freely.
Paratransit Service
University Paratransit is a specialized curb-to-curb, on-campus
transportation service provided free of charge to persons with either
temporary or permanent physical disabilities. This service operates
7:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. Monday through Friday throughout the year, except
during University holidays. Call 612-282-6619 to schedule a ride.
Reservations are accepted up to two days in advance.
Metro Mobility
Door-through-door service is available by reservation for people
with disabilities who cannot use Metro Transit’s regular bus service.
Deeply discounted Metro Mobility fare tickets are available to University
students, staff, and faculty. To purchase discounted fare tickets,

- 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information on the service,
