Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How will the Durgee bus loop be impacted by the change in traffic pattern?
A: The direction of the Durgee bus loop will remain the same. Busses will line up in front of Durgee and release students curbside. The only change will be the way busses enter the loop. Instead of entering from Albert Palmer Drive busses will enter the loop from the Baker side of campus.
