Campus Shuttles System: BearTransit
BearTransit is UC Berkeley’s shuttle system, serving the campus, Downtown Berkeley BART, parking lots, Clark Kerr Campus and the Hill area. The shuttle is free for Berkeley affiliates with a Cal ID and costs $1 for visitors. View the daytime and nighttime safety shuttle schedules. Please note: The Perimeter “P” Shuttle runs in one direction only, so the trip to Sutardja Dai Hall from BART is significantly shorter than the return trip from Sutardja Dai Hall back to BART. The AC Transit bus may be a better option if time is limited.
Accessibility
View information on disability access and parking options. Notify any BearTransit shuttle driver and he or she will dispatch a transport van to arrive within 15 minutes of your request.
