Syracuse University announced plans Thursday to expand shuttles and safety escort services one month after students called for better late-night transportation options.
The Department of Public Safety will add two vans and drivers to Shuttle 44, the department’s late-night safety escort system, Interim Chief Diversity Officer Keith Alford announced in a campus-wide email Thursday. Alford also said licensed, unarmed security staff will be placed at areas to the north and east of campus as an expansion of the university’s current safety escort patrol program.
