Welcome

What Night Safety services does Berkeley offer?

UC Berkeley offers comprehensive free night safety services made up of BearWalk escort, night shuttle buses, and a door-to-door service. The time of day determines what services are available.

BearWalks are available from dusk to 3:00am (last call at 2:30am), night shuttles run on routes from 7:30pm to 3:00am and the door-to-door service is available from 3:00am until 5:30am.

Classes, study, research, meetings, films or concerts can keep you on campus late at night.

Just VISIT BEARWALK.BERKELEY.EDU or call 510-642-9255 (2-WALK) TO MAKE YOUR REQUEST!

About Dusk

Dusk is the darkest stage of twilight in the evening. That is when BearWALK will begin its service, though the clock time for this border between day and night will change, depending on the time of year.
