Required Seat Reservations, Cancellations and Route Alerts
Shuttle riders are required to reserve a seat through the R2U Connect app and show their reservation confirmation from their connected email address or in the app upon boarding. Riders can also use the app to see when the shuttle is close to pick-up and drop-off locations. The latest version of the app is available through Google Play or the Apple Store. Before faculty, staff or students use the service for the first time, they need to create an account using their Purdue email address. Using a Purdue email will ensure rides are free.
Riders who need to cancel an existing reservation should email customerservice@r2uconnect.com. If rebooking at a different time, no cancellation confirmation is needed.
Notifications for route changes or delays due to weather or other circumstances will be issued to users through the R2U Connect app. Riders should make sure their app is up to date to receive these notifications and access the latest features.
Campus Transit
Additionally, complimentary transit services exist to help faculty, staff and students navigate each location with Purdue Campus Transit serving West Lafayette and Jagline serving Indianapolis.
