UTS 2012-2013

McCormick Road Bridge Closure

The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has posted a reduced weight limit on the McCormick Road Bridge prohibiting vehicles weighing more than 8 tons from crossing the bridge.

Because of the way the weight limit on the McCormick Road Bridge impacted UTS:

Depending on where you are starting from, it will be more efficient to walk to locations on Central Grounds like Clark, Kerchoff, Halsey, Maury, Minor, Brown College, Bryan.
Newcomb Hall and Monroe Hall are best served either on foot or from stops along Emmet Street.
The Clemons Library, Alderman Library, Peabody area are best served from a new stop on University Avenue near the Newcomb Road intersection.
A new stop has been created on Culbreth Road so for the first time, the Arts Grounds will be served by UTS (Hunter Smith Band Building, Ruffin Hall, Fine Arts Library, University of Virginia Art Museum, Campbell Hall, Culbreth Theatre).
Virtually all buildings on Grounds have bike parking available. Please click here for additional information about cycling at U.Va.

The University Transit Service (UTS) has implemented a series of changes to its fixed route system to continue linking housing areas and commuter parking lots to Grounds. Please review the information below to orient yourself to the new route structures.

Health System Commuters: The Green Route and Stadium/Hospital Shuttle (SHS) will run as normally scheduled.
