PRT passengers reminded to follow safety guidelines, submit feedback

PRT waiting for students to load in

With thousands of passengers traveling across campus each day, the Personal Rapid Transit team reminds passengers of safety guidelines when riding the PRT.

To help us better understand and improve the rider experience, passengers are encouraged to complete the PRT Feedback Survey by scanning the QR code found in the vehicles.

Passengers should always stay off the electrically powered guideway. This area contains highly dangerous voltage areas that can cause injuries to you or others. 

You should only access the track when instructed to do so by PRT staff. If you drop an item or need assistance with something on the track, please use the assistance telephones located on each platform to talk with PRT staff.

Additionally, when boarding, passengers should not hold vehicle doors open or overcrowd the vehicle. Passengers also should not forcibly open vehicle doors or windows. These actions can cause delays for you and your fellow passengers.

Passenger compliance with these safety guidelines assists the University in providing an effective and efficient PRT system.

The PRT normal operating hours are from 6:30 a.m. to 10:15 p.m. Monday to Friday and 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m on Saturdays. It is closed on Sundays. However, the PRT may have special hours of operation for campus events and University holidays.

Faculty, staff and students ride for free with their WVU ID, and the general public pays only 50 cents per trip.
