Detours and Service Delays

V & VE - May experience delays due to construction on Vairo and Oakwood. We're sorry for the inconvenience.

Stop 285 - Walker Building temporarily is closed due to construction on Atherton Street. 

Routes Affected are the AC, H, N, R, RC, V, W, BL

The closest alternative to the Walker Building is the Deike Building and Rec Hall bus stops

The H Route is unable to service Mount Nittany Toftrees until further notice. 

 

We apologize for any inconvenience this causes. 

 

Thank you! 

Due to a route change, the Red Link (RL) does not service Innovation Park or Mount Nittany Medical Center.

Due to a software issue, the current HU Express MyStop map shows stop on Fox Hollow Road. The HU does not service these four stops: only the H route. When clicking the stop(s), a departure time does not show for the HU. CATA is working with their software partners to correct this issue. Thank you for your patience.
