    Tip: Addresses are only allowed if they are in the bounds of the service area or represented by a dot on the map.

  2. Select the Confirm Ride button

You will see your ride and estimated wait time displayed on the map. You can also find this information in My Rides on the menu.

Common Issues

My pickup or dropoff location is within the shuttle area, but I get an "outside the service area" error message.

In the grey areas of the map, which include the main Brown University campus, the jewelry district, downtown, and beyond, you must choose a dot on the map for pickup and dropoff locations instead of typing an address in the address fields.
