Lakeside Commons shuttle bus returns

OSWEGO, N.Y. — Students living at Lakeside Commons are getting their ride back.

This past week, Lakeside Commons announced that their shuttle service running from the SUNY Oswego campus to the apartments and back will soon return.

Residents of the Commons are eagerly anticipating the return of the service, as most students have been forced to take extreme measures to get to classes from their apartment since the service was halted only a few weeks ago.

Lakeside Commons resident and SUNY Oswego student Arlete Brito said that she had to either take an Uber or walk down Route 104 — with no sidewalks, near oncoming traffic — just to get to class.

Brito said she is happy it is returning, as the cost of frequent Ubers adds up quickly. She is also relieved she will no longer have to ask her friends for rides, and that she won’t have to walk home at night.

According to Lakeside Commons’ announcement, the shuttle will return this Sunday. Students hope it will stick around, and that they will be able to rely on it for a long time yet.
