Night Safety Transit Hours

We stop accepting calls 15 minutes before closing.  

Rides are dispatched to locations based on the order they are received. You cannot call ahead for a ride and must be ready for pickup when the driver arrives. The driver will wait a maximum of 3 minutes. Two no-shows will result in being banned from the service for the semester.

After a call is received the average wait for a ride is 15 – 25 minutes depending upon weather conditions and the number of incoming calls.

The geographical boundaries (streets) for ridership are:

• To the North: Willow Street (by the Southern Illinoisan newspaper)
• To the South: The Reserves on US 51 South
• To the West: Tower Road
• To the East: Giant City Road

During University Breaks (Holidays, Fall Break, Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break & Spring Break) and Summer Semester, and inclement weather, Night Safety Transit is closed. 

For further information, please call 618/453-5749, or call Night Safety Transit at 618/715-0770 during evening hours.
