Bus service via SRTA to Fall River & New Bedford

In partnership with Southeastern Regional Transit Authority (SRTA), we offer students the ability to ride SRTA buses at no cost by simply showing your UMass Pass. SRTA provides access to routes and stops in Fall River, New Bedford, and the surrounding area.

LAST BUS: The SRTA #9 bus provides transportation from the Main Campus (Campus Center) to the New Bedford Bus terminal. The bus also makes all intermediary stops along its route from UMassD to the New Bedford terminal. The bus normally arrives at the Campus Center at approximately 9:20pm and waits until 9:35pm before it begins its route to the New Bedford Terminal.
