Wellesley and MIT cross-registered students have boarding priority on the Exchange Bus. To ride the Exchange Bus, a current Wellesley College or MIT ID card is required. Students will be allowed to have guests on the Local Motion buses and the BOW Shuttle.
Current faculty and staff of Wellesley College and MIT must purchase a ticket/token/punch pass (each way) in order to ride the Exchange Bus. Faculty and staff need to show the bus driver their current id.
Tokens are for sale in the Campus Center and in Stone Davis Hall for $3.00 each. Punch Passes (10 rides) are available at the Leaky Beaker and the Bookstore for $30.00 each. There are two token machines in the Campus Center ATM area and one in the Stone-Davis laundry room. Tickets are available for purchase in LaVerde's Market in the MIT Stratton Student Center as well.
Scheduled times are only approximate. Please wait for Wellesley's buses ten minutes in advance of scheduled times to assure not missing the bus.
