Coralville Transit is an American public transit system serving Coralville, Iowa, as well as providing service into downtown Iowa City via the University of Iowa campus. In addition, a one-way route to and from North Liberty runs twice a day on weekdays during the morning and evening rush hours. The service provides several routes connecting downtown Iowa City with various destinations in Coralville, such as Coral Ridge Mall, Iowa River Landing, and Commerce Drive. It is one of four transit systems in the Iowa City area, the other three being Iowa City Transit, the University of Iowa Cambus, and the 380 Express commuter bus.

Routes edit

Coralville Transit provides 6 routes that run between downtown Iowa City, the University of Iowa campus, and various destinations in Coralville. 4 of these routes (routes 20-23) are weekday routes, one of which is a commuter route that runs once during the morning and afternoon rush hours to North Liberty (route 22). There is also a weeknight route (route 24) and a Saturday route (route 25), which are identical to each other in the route they run. All routes originate and terminate at the Iowa City Downtown Interchange (except for route 22, which originates near the Coralville Transit garage for its morning run, and terminates there for its evening run), and routes 20, 22, 24, and 25 serve the Coralville Transit Intermodal Facility at Iowa River Landing.^[2]^[3]
