Ride the Longhorns Express to UT football games

Capital Metro will provide shuttle service beginning with the UT vs. UTEP game on Sept. 26 with the new Longhorns Express Bus. Capital Metro is working with The University of Texas at Austin to provide shuttles to Darrell K. Royal Texas Memorial Stadium for the remainder of the 2009 football season.

Pick up the Barton Creek Shuttle on the north side of the mall, near Dillard's. The Barton Creek Shuttle drops off fans at University and 21st Street.

Catch the 51st Street Shuttle at the Intramural Fields parking lot, at Guadalupe and 51st street. You'll get dropped off at Dean Keeton and San Jacinto.

The shuttle will begin picking up passengers from remote lots two and a half hours prior to kickoff. Shuttles will stop picking up after kickoff.

The shuttles will begin returning passengers at the end of the third quarter. The last shuttle will depart the stadium one hour after the game has ended.

Individual round trip prices are $8. Cash Only. Student IDs will not be accepted in lieu of fare. Passengers will be issued a roundtrip ticket at the shuttle pick-up location. Fans will be required to present the ticket when boarding the return shuttle. Tickets for returning shuttles will not be sold at the stadium.

Capital Metro has fully complied with the Federal Transit Administration's charter regulations and is able to provide the shuttle service because no eligible private charter companies were able to provide the service.

Capital Metro encourages the use of its regular bus routes, many of which serve the UT campus. Several Capital Metro bus routes have stops near the Darrell K. Royal - Texas Memorial Stadium. Because they have the most frequent weekend service and have stops nearest the stadium, we suggest routes 1L/1M, 5, 7,21 , and 22as excellent options for game day transportation via Capital Metro. Some bus routes will be detoured on game days.
