Carbondale, IL – Changes are coming to SIU-Carbondale's Saluki Express.
The route changes affect only the South Route and the Logan Route.
Beginning January 14th, the South Route will now extend to Kroger and Carbondale Community High School. In addition, the South Route will not go north of Chautauqua Street as it has in the past, to compensate for the extra stops.
Also, there will be a weekend time change on the South Route. The new time schedule calls for the first Saturday bus run at 9:36 a.m. and the last Sunday run at 5:36 p.m.
There's one more change coming to the Logan Route and it affects only students at John A. Logan College. As of January 1st, all Logan students need a special free bus pass called the "Logan Pass." All they need to do to get this new pass is get a copy of their schedule endorsed at Logan's Dean of Student Services office and bring it to the SIU Carbondale ID Office, on the second floor of the Student Center.
