As UCLA Transportation prepares for fall operations, the health and safety of customers and employees remain a top priority. As stated in Administrative Vice Chancellor Michael Beck’s notice regarding Health Protocols for a Safer Return to Campus, UCLA is working tirelessly to facilitate a safer return for those coming and continuing to work on campus this fall.
In response to COVID-19, UCLA Transportation immediately implemented service modifications and additional cleaning protocols to help protect the campus community, including:
BruinBus
- Drivers are required to wear face coverings and gloves.
- All passengers must wear a face covering while riding BruinBus.
- Buses are operating at 50% capacity to ensure safe distancing between passengers.
- Buses are disinfected and sanitized regularly throughout the day.
- Hand sanitizers have been installed at the front and rear doors.
- Two windows will remain open on each bus to facilitate quality airflow.
BruinAccess and UCLA SafeRide
- Drivers are required to wear face coverings and gloves while operating vehicles.
- Vehicles are cleaned and disinfected at the beginning and end of every trip.
BruinCar
- Hand sanitizer is available at the BruinCar key distribution box.
- All occupants are required to wear face coverings when sharing a ride in a BruinCar.
