Transportation

Parking/Parking Permits:

Students intending to park on the College campus should register their vehicles and display a parking decal obtained through the Security Office. All students are required to observe posted parking regulations.

Any vehicle parked in handicapped parking areas without a placard, or outside designated parking areas, is subject to ticketing and/or removal. Any student who fails to pay fines may be reported to the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles and be subject to Registry imposed penalties. Students requiring temporary use of handicapped parking privileges must obtain permits from the O'Neill Center for Disability Services located in the South Building Room 222 x4337.

Public Transportation:

Cape Cod Community College assists students, faculty, and staff who either experience transportation problems or find the cost of transportation exceedingly high. The efforts of the Student Life and Co-Curricular Office have centered on providing information and assistance on the following services:

The Car Pool Information Program:

By filling out a basic information form, students are encouraged to car pool if at all possible. Students return periodically to match up with others who have similar class and work schedules. The program is open year round and also serves to help alleviate short-term transportation problems which can be devastating to any college student. Contact the Office of Student Life and Co-curricular Programs in the Grossman Commons Room C201, x4320 for more information.

The Breeze, The Cape Cod Regional Transit Authority:

Buses run five days a week from Woods Hold to Provincetown. The Village Breeze bus route stops at CCCC. No bus service on Sundays or Holidays. Note: Students using the bus service to campus on Saturdays must inform the driver upon entering the bus.

Day passes and monthly passes are available at a reduced rate. For additional information, call (800) 352-7155 or (508) 385-8326, TDD (508) 385-4163 or www.thebreeze.info.

Bus Fares:

Bus fares on regional routes start at $2.00 and increase depending on the length of your ride.

• Senior citizens (60 years or older with a Medicare card) and people with a disability ID card ride for half-fare.
• Children 5 and younger, accompanied by an adult, ride free.
• Exact change is not necessary, but it will speed your ride.

The B-Bus System:

This system is comparable to a group taxi program in that it requires advance reservations and includes door-to-door service. The B Bus is a valuable service for our students who are not centrally located to the main arteries. It is also a popular service for our disabled and senior citizen students. For further information call (508) 385-8326.

B-Bus:

The B-bus is a convenient, low cost public transportation from you home on Cape Cod and back. The Cape Cod Regional transit Authority provides the door-to-door, ride-by-appointment service for people of all ages for trips for any purpose, including school, work, shopping, college, doctor’s appointments, visiting friends, and even Boston medical trips. B-buses carry up to 19 passengers and are all lift-equipped.

How do I use the B-bus service?

Using B-bus is simple. B-bus picks you up, takes you where you want to go and returns you home. As a new subscriber, call B-bus toll free (800) 352-7155 or locally at (508) 790-2613 between 11:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., and the B-bus scheduler will enroll you and explain he scheduling system. Once enrolled, reservations may be made up to a week in advance by calling between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on weekdays. The earlier you make a reservation, the better your chance of getting a ride the day you desire. You must call, however, by a least 11:00 a.m. the day before you need a ride, and by 11:00 a.m. on Friday for weekend and Monday service.

Telecommunications Device for the hearing impaired (TDD) service is available by calling (508) 385-4163. B-bus is a door–to-door service, so your driver may have to pick you up early to allow time to pick up everyone.

How do I pay for the B-bus service?

The B-bus operates on a “pre-paid” account system. They will advise riders with an established pattern of use what their average monthly ride costs are. The customer should then deposit at least this much to cover future rides. As the account is used, they will advise you of subsequent fare deposits needed to keep the account current. If you are a new customer, they will make arrangements for payment when you call to schedule your ride. If you have any questions please contact their operations center at (800) 352-7155 or locally at (508) 790-2613.
