Commencement Transportation - Friday, June 10 - Sunday, June 12

Posted on May 31 2022

In support of UC Davis commencement ceremonies on Friday, June 10 through Sunday, June 12, Unitrans will operate a free parking shuttle from the Mondavi Center/Gateway Parking Structure/Lot 1/Lot 2 to Lot 48 near UC Davis Health Stadium. The shuttle will operate from 6:00 AM to 1:00 PM approximately every 10 minutes. The bus shuttle will serve two stops - directly in front of the Mondavi Center on Mrak Hall Drive and one in Lot 48, a short walk to UC Davis Health Stadium. Expect long delays on Friday-Sunday, particularly at the Silo Terminal.

 

Due to the Unitrans driver shortage and with a large portion of the drivers graduating, Unitrans will be unable to provide additional public transit service on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Friday transit service will begin at 7:00 AM with the V line serving stops at/near UC Davis Health Stadium. On Saturday and Sunday, transit service does NOT start until approximately 8:30 AM and as a result, will not be able to get you to commencement on-time.
