Air, Bus, and Train
The closest transportation centers are the Bradley International Airport and the Hartford Train/Bus Station (which is served by Amtrak and Greyhound/Peter Pan buses only, not Megabus). We are planning shuttle service to those two locations, see below. Both are also served by public transit. Here is more information on using public transit to get to the University.
Shuttles
We will run shuttle vans between campus and Bradley International Airport and Hartford Train/Bus Station (Amtrak and Greyhound/Peter Pan buses). *Please note that the Megabus uses a different location in Hartford and there will not be shuttle service at that location.
Arrival: Shuttles will run (approximately) between 11 am-3 pm on Monday, July 29th.
Departure: Shuttles will run (approximately) between 8 am-2 pm on Sunday, August 4th
Cost per person per transfer is $10 per person for the train/bus station and $15 per person for the airport. All shuttle vans are wheelchair accessible.
Taxis are available from the train station and airport for roughly $40.
