Starting January 5, 2015, a shuttle will be available for students, residents, faculty and staff to provide transportation between GW School of Medicine and Health Sciences, Children’s National, and the Veterans Administration Hospital. Daily shuttle service will be available Monday-Friday, 5:30am – 7:00pm with a one (1) hour break for the driver. A 24 passenger mini bus will be used during the trial period.

**The new shuttle service will be piloted for 90 days to determine if there is adequate ridership that would warrant a permanent shuttle service between the three medical institutions.

WHO CAN RIDE?

The shuttle service will be available to all students, residents, faculty and staff who commute between the three locations. You will be required to show identification when entering the shuttle bus.

WHERE CAN I GET ON AND OFF THE SHUTTLE?

  • GW SMHS Stop – 24th and I Street – on the west end of the GW SMHS Courtyard near the George Washington bust.
  • Children National Health System Stop – P1 level
  • Veterans Administration Stop – Building 6 Entrance - Just past the main entrance.
