Razorback Transit has begun providing full route service today, in tandem with the University of Arkansas beginning its fall semester.

University of Arkansas news said “In an effort to continue promoting the health and safety of campus, passengers should be aware of new safety precautions that are in place to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19”.

Razorback Transit will be operating at 66% capacity this semester, meaning bus capacity will be limited to 45 riders. Face coverings- whether that be face shields or masks will also be required in order to ride.

In addition to try and promote the new guidelines, the University also stressed in their article that first come first serve will be important to keep in mind. Especially since the transit system will not be operating at full capacity, buses will fill up even faster than in the past.

Walking guidelines were not disclosed in the article. That appears to be business as usual.
