 Subject: MASSMAIL - SafeRides/Late Night Transportation

2003 - 2004 Late Night Transportation alternatives for University of 
Illinois students:
 
The 22 Illini provides safe secure transportation throughout the main 
campus area. The Illini operates every 10 minutes until 3:00AM seven days 
a week and until 5:00AM on Friday & Saturday nights. 

The 50 Green Late Night and 100 Yellow Late Night Routes also provide safe 
secure transportation through the main campus area and between Downtown 
Urbana and Champaign. The routes are connected to one another in Downtown 
Champaign so passengers can continue from one route to another without 
getting off the bus. Both routes operate every 30 minutes until 3:00AM 
seven days a week and until 5:00AM on Friday & Saturday nights.

SafeRides acts as a safety-net for individuals in areas around campus. 
SafeRides is not available for any trip which can be completed on the 22 
Illini Route. Once the 22 Illini stops operating then SafeRides serves all 
of campus. Service operates seven days a week from Dusk (7:00PM - 5:00PM 
after the time change) until 6:30AM and is available by calling 265-Ride.

The purpose of SafeRides is to provide safe transportation to students who 
generally are traveling alone when no other means of safe transportation 
are available. 

There is a maximum limit of three (3) persons per pick-up location within 
the SafeRides boundaries.

SafeRides is not meant to take groups out, but primarily individuals. 
Groups should ride the 22 Illini route or the closest available community 
route operating.

For those individuals who are concerned about walking to or waiting at the 
bus stop for the 22 Illini, SafeWalks Escort Service is available by 
contacting University Police at 333-1216 or via an emergency campus phone.

More detailed instructions on using SafeRides and exact route and schedule 
information for the 22 Illini, 50 Green, and 100 Yellow Routes is 
available on the MTD webpage at
