Transportation

UC Merced provides an assortment of transportation options and resources to get you where you need to go.

Whether you drive, bike, carpool or use public transportation, Transportation and Parking Services (TAPS) provides parking and transit services.

With a strong commitment to sustainability, UC Merced supports several alternative transportation programs to provide affordable and convenient options to personal-vehicle use, including CatTracks, the bus transit line that provides service to and from campus to nearby neighborhoods and communities and downtown Merced.

The Commuter Club assists faculty and staff members with finding cost-efficient and environmentally-friendly alternatives to driving to campus. You can also find information regarding local and regional taxi, train, bus and air transit options.

TAPS also serves commuters who drive personal vehicles to campus through its parking permit services.
