Summer 2026 Service Schedule

ECU Transit operates on a semester-based service schedule that aligns with the university’s academic calendar. Our standard operating times may vary between Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters to best meet the needs of our campus community. Riders can expect regular service during class days, with reduced or suspended service during university breaks, holidays, and exam periods. Please review the service calendar below to note days where service is altered or not operating throughout the semester.

Should additional changes in service occur due to weather or other unplanned events, notice will be posed online to our website and social media accounts. Additionally, you can text ECU SUB RIDE to 22827 to sign up for text message alerts to be notified via text message about service adjustments.

    Service Calendar

    The ECU Transit Service Calendar is posted by academic term and outlines all service exceptions and other important dates for a given semester. Service exceptions are planned in advance and occur when service is modified or canceled on a specific date, typically due to holidays, events, academic breaks, or other planned events that impact the university calendar. Unless otherwise noted, normal service, as listed above, will operate as scheduled.
