UTM+and+Sheridan+Transportation



**Welcome to the UTM and Sheridan Shuttle discussion!**

//Frustrated with the lack of shuttle times that fit your busy schedule?// //Sick of waiting in the cold for public transit, and then spending needless dollars to get home at a reasonable hour?// //Think you've got a better solution?// //Post it here!// We were a very small group in class today, so we welcome input from everyone!

**Problems** **Possible Solutions:**
 * CCIT students often have more than 2 Sheridan classes a week at times that do not correspond to the shuttle schedule
 * Often the shuttle buses are very crowded and even with the overload bus they can't fit everyone. What happens to these students?
 * Waiting in the cold needlessly + Long, expensive commute = showing up tired = bad learning experience = wasting time
 * Oakville transit tickets cost $51 for 20 tickets. Regular bus fare is $3. UTM Students already paid for Mississauga Transit Pass, but are not allowed to use it coming back from Sheridan on the 24.
 * Every hour shuttle buses!
 * smaller buses during off-peak hours
 * more overload buses at busy times
 * More frequent Oakville Transit buses
 * 13 should come through Sheridan, it's still on it's route and would only take a few extra minutes
 * Transit pass/discount for students on Oakville Transit
 * Students are allowed to use Mississauga Transit Pass on the Oakville 24 at anytime and any stop.
 * Carpooling system by students!

We should take a stand !!
