Cortland Transit bus passes offered on campus

02/08/2022 

Cortland Transit monthly bus passes are now available at the SUNY Cortland Campus Store, making it more convenient for students and employees to access public transportation options in Cortland County.

The campus location is one of three new sales locations created through a partnership of SUNY Cortland, Cortland County, Access to Independence and Catholic Charities aimed at improving access to bus service and encouraging a more sustainable alternative to private vehicles.

“SUNY Cortland and Cortland Auxiliary Services are excited that our Campus Store will be one of the new locations where Cortland Transit riders can purchase bus passes,” said SUNY Cortland President Erik J. Bitterbaum.

“We hope that easier access to these passes will encourage our students and employees to take advantage of the bus routes offered by Cortland Transit.”
