AU SHUTTLE

The AU shuttle buses are kneeling buses and are handicapped accessible. 

Traveling to and from the Spring Valley Building (SVB) at 4801 Massachusetts Ave. NW
There are free, open-to-the-public AU shuttles (Red Route Express) that run from the Tenley Metro station to the Spring Valley Building, 4801 Massachusetts Ave. NW. They have "SVB" (Spring Valley Building) listed in the display above the windshield.

  • The Red Route Express shuttle runs  every 15 minutes from 7:00 AM - 6:35 PM and stops at the Katzen Center on the way to OLLI. Visit AU's Shuttle Services website to view more information about the shuttle, including a map of the Red Route.
