Line U

AC Transit runs a weekday express shuttle bus service between the East Bay and the Stanford campus. This service is FREE for Stanford faculty, staff, students, hospital employees, and SLAC employees with a valid university ID card, hospital ID badge, or SLAC ID badge. For all other riders, a fare of $4.20 each direction applies.

  • New luxury highway coaches, equipped with high back seats, individual reading lights, and air-conditioning for seasonal comfort.
  • East Bay stops at the Fremont BART, Fremont ACE/AMTRAK station (Centerville) connecting with the ACE Train and at the Ardenwood Park and Ride lot in Newark.
  • Stanford stops at the Stanford Shopping Center, Stanford Medical Center (Roth Way at Campus Drive), and the Stanford Oval.

Additional parking is available for Line U riders at the Wells Fargo parking lot at 3440 Walnut Avenue in Fremont. Stanford Line U riders may park in any of the 68 spaces marked "Stanford." View more information about this Park & Ride Lot, including maps and photos.
