Parking and Transportation Services provides all employees a free bus pass via their RamCard. Employees can ride any Transfort route in the city (including MAX) as well as two regional routes (FLEX and Poudre Express). More than half of all CSU employees who live in Fort Collins have access to a Transfort stop within a quarter mile of their home. Let someone else do the driving, and catch up on a few emails, or just focus on you. On campus, catch the Around the Horn shuttle to get you across campus, to the Research Blvd Parking Lot, and onto the Veterinary Teaching Hospital campus. Use Route 2 or 32 (both pickup at the CSU Transit Center) to connect to the Foothills Shuttle at West Elizabeth and Overland Trail. The Foothills Shuttle runs in a loop and serves the northern (Laporte Ave) and southern (Rampart Rd) buildings of the CSU Foothills campus.
Live outside Fort Collins? Catch the FLEX in Boulder, Longmont, and Loveland. Catch the Poudre Express in Greeley, Windsor, and the Harmony Transfer Center.

What is in place to ensure my safety on transit?
All Transfort passenger buses are equipped with a mobile video security system to allow Transfort operations and law enforcement staff to view live video feeds from nearby vehicles, improving the safety and security of operators and passengers.
Transfort can also use GPS data reported through this system to identify the exact location of buses along their routes. This information is useful for daily operations and allows dispatchers to monitor and actively manage buses, and the ability to provide live vehicle location information could prove very valuable in an emergency situation.
