Many of the Knight Ride locations are already Pegasus Express campus shuttle stops. The additional Knight Ride spots also will accommodate students who live off-campus along Alafaya Trail and McCulloch Road.
It will take the van an estimated 30 minutes to circle campus.
Walking escorts and ADA-compliant golf carts also are available by calling 407-823-2424. The starting and final destinations that are in the inner core of campus are the most accessible options.
Knight Ride drivers and walking escorts are students who are part-time employees at UCFPD and who have been vetted and trained by the police department. They also watch for suspicious activity, which is reported to uniformed UCFPD officers for follow-up.
