Mountain Line Transit Announces Football Shuttle Schedule

Morgantown, WV- The Mountain Line Transit Authority provides shuttles to all WVU football home games. The cost per ticket for all passengers is $1.50 each way. Children age 5 and under ride free.  

Shuttle buses will pick up passengers at two locations: Mountaineer Mall’s lower entrance, and Shoney’s restaurant in Star City. Parking is free, and shuttles run every ten minutes. The service begins two hours before kickoff. The return trips run for one hour after the game.

To accommodate the WVU shuttle service, changes will be made to the existing Mountain Line bus schedules on home game days.
