Starting this weekend, Michigan Tech Athletics will offer free bus service for students to the MacInnes Student Ice Arena on hockey game nights.

The MAC isn't the easiest place for you to get on cold, slippery winter days with the long hike up the hill. So for the rest of the season, the Huskies are providing some wheels!

Starting one hour before each game, bus service will run every 20
minutes with stops at Wadsworth Hall main parking lot, behind DHH (Cliff Drive side of DHH), and drop off at the Student Entrance at the SDC near Portage Health. The bus will run this cycle three times during the hour before each game.

Times are approximations based on weather and traffic:



December 13 & 14; January 24 & 25; February 7, 14 & 15,  & 21 all from 6-7 PM


February 8 from 4-5 PM (early game time due to Winter Carnival)

Wadsworth Main Parking Lot :00, :20, :40
DHH Rear Lot :08, :28, :48
SDC Drop Offs :15, :35, :55


After you've tried it for a few games, please feel free to give us  feedback at athleticmarketing@mtu.edu Thanks for your great support of  Huskies hockey this season!
