        A couple of years ago, a newer Cedar Falls loop route was added. It takes passengers from the UNI campus to the rapidly growing southern part of Cedar Falls where the new Super Wal-Mart and Blaine’s Farm & Fleet can be found. It also goes to the northern and northwestern parts of town, including the Fareway grocery store and Osco Drug. This route has been especially useful for UNI students. Map and timetable
        A convenient bus stop is located near the intersection of College Street and Seerley Boulevard.
