Greater Cleveland RTA
University Circle is well connected to the region by public transit. The Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (RTA) operates five bus routes, the Euclid Avenue HealthLine (bus rapid transit) and the Red Line (heavy rail) with service to University Circlet. The HealthLine offers convenient service to Fairfax, Midtown, Campus District, East Cleveland, and Downtown. The Red Line offers direct service to Downtown Cleveland and Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. RTA also provides Paratransit service for people with disabilities.
Resources
NextConnect
RTA's NextConnect service uses satellite and GPS-based technology to monitor bus locations in real-time.
Transit App
The Transit app provides real-time arrival info for RTA’s buses and trains as well as the BlueLink, GreenLink, Heights AM & Evening South shuttle routes. Launch “Go” to get step-by-step navigation from Daniel, a friendly British robot. You can also plan a trip and set reminders.
Vanpool
Vanpool is a good option for people who want to take transit but do not leave near a bus or train line. A vanpool is like a carpool but with at least 5 people sharing a van on a contract basis. Vanpool networks extend the transit network beyond its current bounds, while offering similar costs and benefits.
Resources
Enterprise Vanpool
'Commute' with Enterprise provides vanpool and rideshare services for individuals, employers and government agencies.
Akron Metro, SARTA & LakeTran
If you’re coming from the Akron area or Lake County, find out which transit options are available to you. Akron Metro’s Route 61 provides direct service to University Circle from Akron Metro’s Transit Center. Laketran riders have one free transfer to either RTA’s Red Line or HealthLine for service to University Circle.
Resources
Akron Metro Website
Browse routes, fares and plan your trip on Akron Metro’s website.
SARTA
The Stark Area Regional Transit Authority provides weekday transit service from Downtown Canton to University Circle and Downtown Cleveland.
Laketran App
Plan a trip, track your bus, see schedules, get fare information or click-to-call Dial-a-Ride from Laketran’s new app.
Shuttles
Tour the Circle or make your final connections via CircleLink, University Circle’s FREE public shuttle service. The BlueLink route connects RTA’s Little Italy-University Circle rapid station to Wade Oval, Uptown, Little Italy, and Coventry. The GreenLink route connects RTA’s Cedar-University Circle rapid station to the CWRU and UH campuses and points in between. Both routes have direct connections to the HealthLine and multiple other bus and local shuttle routes.
