Transportation

Hilbert College strives to embrace its Catholic Franciscan heritage each day through acts of service, selflessness, and compassion for all. Our NEW Shuttle Service allows for access to a high quality and affordable education and demonstrates our commitment to the SAY YES program as well as Hilbert community members residing in the City of Buffalo.

The Hilbert Shuttle will be available beginning in the Fall of 2020, FREE to all Hilbert students, faculty, and staff. The shuttle will have direct routes from the City of Buffalo to Hilbert College’s Hamburg, NY campus for easy access to and from the college on weekdays. Transportation via the Hilbert Shuttle will also be available on the weekends for residential students, with routes to a wide variety of shopping and entertainment excursions including Wegmans, Quaker Crossing and the Galleria Mall.
