On Monday, March 30, 2020, Iowa City Transit made temporary changes to its weekday service in response to COVID-19, including ending weekday service at 8 p.m. and providing hourly service on most routes using “Saturday” routes and schedules.
Starting Thursday, April 2, 2020, Iowa City Transit will further modify service on the Oakcrest route during peak travel periods.
The Oakcrest buses departing the interchange at the top of each hour will continue to use the “Saturday” Oakcrest route and and will continue to service Wal-Mart, Aldi, Highway 1 and Riverside Drive. This bus will not service UIHC while traveling inbound.
The Oakcrest buses departing the interchange at the bottom of the hour during peak service will use the regular weekday Oakcrest route and will service the UIHC campus on both the outbound and inbound trips.
