The West Campus Shuttle will stop at: the West Campus, the Field House, the CUE Bus Stop, the Sandy Creek Shuttle Stop and at the Presidents Park Circle. The shuttle stop at the West Campus Lot is located on the north side of the lot closest to the athletic fields-as a reminder all vehicle traffic must enter/exit the lot via Braddock Rd.
