Shuttle Information

Inter-campus travel and connecting to the Greater Boston Area

The Bentley Shuttles are a great resource for exploring the local area, as well as getting around campus. With three routes that cover campus, Waltham, Waverly Square (Belmont) and Harvard Square (Cambridge), you also have easy access to MBTA buses, subway, and commuter rail lines. You can catch all three lines at the LaCava Shuttle Hub.  The TransLoc Rider mobile app provides live tracking, bus capacity, and arrival times, as well as important schedule updates.
