Beginning Sept. 2, bus route 80 will no longer make stops south of Observatory Drive between Walnut Street and Highland Avenue, which will save three minutes of travel time between the Memorial Union, UW Hospital and Eagle Heights.
Until the Observatory Drive construction is complete in October, passengers of Route 80 will need to use the stops at the McClimon Track or Lot 60 to access the area near the hospital.
After 6 p.m., Route 80 will resume serving Union South on Randall Avenue and West Johnson Street until construction closes the area later this year.
A new express Route 84 will make trips every 30 minutes between 4:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. with limited stops from the UW-Madison campus to Eagle Heights.
Students can pick up their free fall bus pass through Sept. 12 in Memorial Union's 2nd floor Annex Room or the Union South lobby weekdays 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.. Starting Sept. 14, bus passes will be available at StudentPrint in the Memorial Union basement weekdays 9:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. A student ID is required to pick up a pass.
