SRTA bus issues- what's going on?!

[greenfall]

Would someone PLEASE explain when the SRTA bus comes to UMD?

The website is misleading and everyone I've asked has no idea in hell.

I'm not talking about the LOOP bus.

When the hell does the SRTA bus get to UMD? It's been days and I NEED TO GET MY CAR AT THE DARTMOUTH MALL BECAUSE IT WAS JUST REPAIRED AND I HAVE CLINICAL ON THURSDAY.

WHERE DOES

If you're going to the mall, you need to catch the Fall River to New Bedford bus, as opposed to the New Bedford to Fall River bus. The FR->NB bus arrives anytime between half past and quarter to the hour. The NB->FR bus stops between 20 and half past the hour.

The bus used to stop in two places: Outside of Dion at the front of campus, and outside the campus center. I'm not sure if it still stops at the campus center or not.

I eventually did grab a bus.. by throwing myself in front of it and almost getting hit (as it was leaving the campus center). It's a long story.. but I finally got the ride I needed. It still stops at the campus center (and only the campus center now), but I thought it must stop somewhere else because I waited hours for it and it never showed up (I couldn't call the bus people or I would have, I had no phone!). No one at the campus center knew anything about it, and although the schedule is posted on the wall, the bus apparently never comes at the right time anyway. It's a sketchy bus system, very frustrating, and I know now that I am far from the only one who's had issues with it.

And it was free when I flashed my pass. Yay!

Anyway, thank you for replying!
