Mikaela Cohen | Assistant News Editor Caroline Dodson, a sophomore public relations major, noticed at popular stops like Tate and the main library, students have to crowd around the bus when it arrives to get a seat. She said these stops seem the busiest around mid-afternoon. âSome of the seats on the bus donât seem socially distant at all; you are right next to each other. If they wanted to be 6 feet apart, they could change that,â Dodson said. Routes were shortened to make buses more frequent throughout campus, said Todd Berven, interim director for Transportation and Parking Services. This helped with the reduced occupancy that was caused by the pandemic guidelines.
