Indiana State University students, faculty and staff are able to ride the bus for free by showing their university ID.[5] This is a result of a contract with the university where it pays the transit utility $110,000 per semester, which is matched with federal transit funds.[6]
Ivy Tech students and staff have the choice to ride the Terre Haute City Bus as well as the CampusTransit Shuttle Bus at no charge by showing a valid Ivy Tech ID.[7]
Terre Haute transit uses a number of "Paratransit" vehicles manufactured by StarTrans. Fleet numbers range from 30-42 and a StarTrans Replica Trolley. Their fleet also includes two Azure Citibuses, hybrid type vehicles, that were entered service in May 2010.
The bus transfer center, located at 8th and Cherry streets, serves as the primary transfer point for Terre Haute Transit buses. The facility is located on the ground level of a parking garage constructed in 2008.[8] The facility is also served by Greyhound Lines buses.[9]
