BreakShuttle has partnered with Wake Forest University to provide a comprehensive transportation network to and from campus for major academic breaks with routes serving Richmond, VA and Silver Springs, MD.

HOW BREAKSHUTTLE.COM WORKS…

Getting home with BreakShuttle is incredibly simple. First, students purchase their tickets through our easy to use website- www.breakshuttle.com.  BreakShuttle then instantly sends them an E-Ticket to their inbox, which then is printed and brought to the bus on the day of travel.

BreakShuttleFlyerOptionOn the scheduled day of break, our easy to find shuttles pick students up directly in front of the Manchester Athletic Center on the Wake Forest campus.  At the schools BreakShuttle serves, students love the fact that they no longer have to take taxis or carpool across town to get to a commercial bus operator with questionable safety records and questionable co- passengers.

After our students are safely checked in and onboard, all they have to do is sit back and relax. Our buses are equipped with the latest in entertainment, comfort, and safety features. On many buses students can surf the web, watch a DVD, or just take a nap. We drop the students off at high-density transportation centers in regional destination cities (such as airports and Amtrak stations) providing a door-to-door luxury transportation experience.

HOW WE PROVIDE THE SAFEST SERVICE…

Each of our local bus partners is chosen primarily on their safety record as reported by the Department of Transportation and state transportation agencies. Our partners are regularly vetted through the DOT’s “SafeStat” program to ensure continuing compliance and safety excellence. In addition, prior to each trip operated for BreakShuttle the luxury motor coach undergoes a thorough mechanical inspection by select qualified mechanics along with periodic total mechanical inspections, which are reported to the Department of Transportation (and verified by BreakShuttle).
