401 Purple

Effective with the Spring 2025 schedule, the outbound stop serving The Eastern on the 10th will no longer be serviced. This change is due to safety concerns put forth by the City of Greenville. Students should utilize the inbound stop at The Eastern on 10th or utilize the nearest designated crosswalk.

The 401 Purple route operates to serve many off-campus apartment complexes along 10^th Street and Greenville Boulevard. Some of the main apartments served include The Quarterdeck, College Park, Cypress Gardens, The Eastern on 10th, and Campus Pointe. 401 Purple operates out of the Christenbury Gym Bus Terminal.
