EXTRA Shuttle Service Provides Service to Students in Alachua, High Springs and Hawthorne
MV Transportation and Santa Fe College are partnering again to provide rural students who lack transportation with access to SF’s Northwest Campus via the EXTRA Shuttle for the spring 2021 term.
The EXTRA Shuttle will provide daily round-trip service for rural students, bringing them to either the Northwest Campus or the Blount Center in the morning and back each afternoon every weekday when classes are in session at SF.
Beginning with spring classes on Jan. 5, 2021, there will be two routes scheduled. One will serve High Springs and Alachua, the other will serve Hawthorne. The EXTRA Shuttle service is supported by a grant from the Florida Commission for the Transportation Disadvantaged. There are only a limited number of transportation vouchers available. Current and future students may apply for a transportation voucher at by completing the form at the bottom of this page. Students will be approved on a first-come, first served basis.
