Students criticize bus route detours, changes

With fewer routes and longer wait times, some University of Wisconsin-Madison students said changes to campus bus routes are ?inconvenient.? As of Aug. 26, routes 80, 81 and 85 changed due to a budget deficit of $1 million and campus area construction, specifically near the Memorial Union, according to UW-Madison Transportation Services. Student Services Finance Committee Vice Chair Joe Vanden Avond said eliminating route 85 and merging it with the ?super? route 80 is the biggest change.
