Campus Transit
Purdue University now partners with Royal Excursion to provide transit service in Indianapolis. The shuttle is offered during the fall and spring when classes are in session.
New for the 2026-27 academic year and beginning on Aug. 24, Purdue Campus Transit service is available at no cost to Purdue students, faculty and staff in Indianapolis. Service supports Purdue’s Indianapolis location and nearby programming. Riders may need to show their PUID when boarding.
Campus Transit is provided independently of IU Indianapolis Jagline and Indianapolis IndyGo transit services, which remain available for use.
Route Information
Campus Transit will run Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. during fall and spring academic semesters. The continuous route includes three stops:
- Purdue in Indianapolis along West Vermont Street, just east of the Blackford Street intersection. The stop is near the current Campus Connect shuttle pick-up and drop-off location.
- 16 Tech Innovation District at 1220 Waterway Blvd., Indianapolis
- Motorsports Engineering at Dallara in Speedway at 1201 N. Main Street, Speedway

Mobile App
Riders can use the R2U Connect app (Google Play/Apple Store) and create an account using their Purdue email address to track the shuttle. If the R2U app is already in use for Campus Connect shuttle service between West Lafayette and Indianapolis, the same account will be used for Campus Transit service in Indianapolis.
