You can also view the Shuttle locator map on the Champlain College app, "My Champlain." This app also has great information such as staff directory, courses, news, dining hall menu and library updates. Search for "My Champlain" on the App Store or Google Play store.
There may be times when a replacement bus is being used that does not have the 12V plug for the tracker. During this time buses may not show up on the tracker but are definitely on the route. Please wait at the stop.
