Routes

Coralville Transit provides 6 routes that run between downtown Iowa City, the University of Iowa campus, and various destinations in Coralville. 4 of these routes (routes 20-23) are weekday routes, one of which is a commuter route that runs once during the morning and afternoon rush hours to North Liberty (route 22). There is also a weeknight route (route 24) and a Saturday route (route 25), which are identical to each other in the route they run. Prior to October 19, 2020, Coralville Transit consisted of several unnumbered routes, including an express route that served residential areas north of Interstate 80.[3] All routes originate and terminate at the Iowa City Downtown Interchange (except for route 22, which originates near the Coralville Transit garage for its morning run, and terminates there for its evening run), and routes 20, 22, 24, and 25 serve the Coralville Transit Intermodal Facility at Iowa River Landing.[2][4]
