Campus Bus Route Detours

Now that the spring semester has come to a close and we are in the throes of high construction season, it will be important to note changes to Campus Bus Routes, 80 and 85.

As of Monday, May 18 (and through August), Bus 80 will observe a significant detour.

Do note that the bus stops on Observatory Drive between Park and Charter are closed. Riders can catch Route 80 buses on Langdon Street in front of the Memorial Union or on Linden Drive at Van Hise.

And due to construction, Randall Avenue is closed between University Avenue and Dayton with Route 85 detouring to Charter. The Route 85 detour is expected to last until the first week of June.

Both routes are observing recess hours. Plan your arrival by visiting the service charts for Bus 80 and Bus 85.

Visit the Transportation Services site for additional updates regarding construction zones and concerns to parking and navigation.

Update from City of Madison Metro Transit: "Observatory Drive will remain open until mid-June, and then be shut down for about two weeks. As a result, we will be returning routes 80 and 85 back to their regular routes on Observatory Drive on Thursday, May 21 (until they decide to close Observatory Drive again)."
