If you’re staying in Ames during Spring Break, CyRide will run on reduced service, and several university services have reduced hours. 

Here are a few things to watch during break:

CyRide:

CyRide will offer fewer trips during Spring Break from Saturday, March 12, to Sunday, March 20, 2016. Shaded trips on CyRide’s printed schedules will not run during this time, and passengers are encouraged to use CyRide’s break schedule at CyRide.com

Instead of a bus every three to five minutes on 23 Orange route, buses will only run every 20 minutes. 

1A Red, 6A Brown Towers/Campus, 9 Plum, 21 Cardinal and 22 Gold routes do not operate during this period. The 24 Silver will not operate on Sunday. Moonlight Express will not operate on the weekends of March 11-12 or March 18-19.
