The Seahawk Shuttle, in operation since 1997, was initially implemented to transport UNCW students who live within one mile of the campus to the University. Today, the shuttle also transports students and employees throughout campus and surrounding areas. The existence of the shuttle helps decrease traffic and makes movement within the campus safer and more efficient. The shuttle has decreased the need for additional surface parking at the university, thereby maintaining precious green space areas. Students and employees of UNCW are eligible to ride the Seahawk Shuttle and all Wave Transit buses at no cost by simply showing a valid student or employee One Card.
