Dear UConn students and employees,

Pick up your new passes for the Windham Regional Transit District buses under WRTD’s UConn/Mansfield “Fare Free” program.  Blue passes  for the “WRTD’s UConn/Mansfield “Fare Free” program” from UConn Parking Services expire July 15, 2016. The free passes are available for pickup at the Parking Services Office.  UConn IDs will be required when you pick up your passes.  The passes will be valid for use on the Storrs-Willimantic bus and the Willimantic City bus routes.

Details are as follows:

We’re excited to share some good news with you.

Having been approached with concerns about the changes to the Windham Regional Transit District program, the University has decided to continue the WRTD Free Fare program for the upcoming year.

This reverses the earlier plans under which individuals would have purchased a pass for their WRTD rides. Those who have already purchased a bus pass will be reimbursed.

The free passes are available for pickup at the Parking Services Office.  UConn IDs will be required when you pick up your passes.  The passes will be valid for use on the Storrs-Willimantic bus and the Willimantic City bus routes.

The expired University blue passes will be valid until July 15.  Unfortunately, any yellow pass provided by the Town of Mansfield to students or staff are only valid until June 30, 2016 when the Town’s program expires.

Anyone with questions can contact us at 860-486-1448, or you can send a message to transportation@uconn.edu.
