UConn Husky fans have a new way to get to Gampel Pavilion for basketball games: UConn Transportation now offers a free shuttle from Storrs Center to campus for men\u2019s and women\u2019s basketball games.<\/p>\n
The Gameday Shuttle will start running 90 minutes before each game, and will run continuously until approximately 90 minutes after each game ends. Fans can catch the shuttle every 20 minutes or so outside the Nash-Zimmer Transportation Center (23 Royce Circle, Storrs), and will be dropped off at the Alumni Bus Stop on Hillside Road on campus.<\/p>\n
UConn Transportation will run a second shuttle between F-Lot on the north side of campus and the Werth Family UConn Basketball Champions Center.
