While all Berry students are permitted to have a car on campus, Berry encourages students to take bikes or the provided Campus Transportation to and from class. The following services and information are available to facilitate effective transportation on campus.
Buses
Berry provides one on-campus bus that is available to transport students to and from class from 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM, Monday through Friday, during the fall and spring semesters. There is one route to cover Main Campus, servicing from Ford to Morton Lemley. Students can contact the Office of Student Involvement at 706-236-2293 or visit the Campus Information Desk in Krannert Lobby and request a ride if needed.
Upon request, the bus will accommodate riders from Mountain Campus and Oak Hill. To schedule a pick-up or drop-off at these locations, please email studentinvolvement@berry.edu.
The Office of Student Involvement offers a bi-monthly Grocery Shuttle to students in need of visiting a local grocery store that may not have transportation. Riders can sign up via email and vote on which grocery store they would like to visit in town.
In partnership with Accessibility Resources, OSI can arrange custom pick-up times and locations for students with accommodations for the full semester.
Bikes
Berry’s campus is conducive to biking, and students are encouraged to take advantage of this alternative mode of transportation. Bikes must be registered with Campus Police and stored in the designated bike racks that are positioned outside of campus buildings. For bikers’ convenience, the Student Government Association has placed several self-service stations around campus (in front of Krannert and Dana, at the Ford Complex, and on Viking Trail). These stations are equipped with screwdrivers, wrenches, an air pump, and other tools needed for basic repairs and maintenance. For more complex repair needs, Viking Cycle Works is a Student Enterprise that can repair bikes and replace parts as needed. They also provide bike storage during the summer for $15.
If you need any assistance with repair stations, please reach out to the Student Government Association, sga@berry.edu.
