Shuttle Shifts Stay

An ad hoc committee on shuttle bus service will probably make permanent a new shuttle-bus express that has run experimentally for the past two weeks, committee members said.

The committee converted a shuttle bus route from Currier House to Quincy Square into an express route, which travels no further than Garden St. near Harvard Square. The express runs from 8:35 a.m. to 4 p.m. and makes no flagstops.

Anne Gregory, director of the shuttle bus service and committee member, said yesterday the committee expects to make a final decision by early January, based on usage statistics recorded by drivers this week.

John E. Dowling '57, acting co-master of North House and a committee member, said yesterday, "Everyone's very positive" about the service, adding he hoped to extend the express service into the early evening.
