Getting You Home Safely.
Please note that SafeRide does not operate during the summer.
We will resume operations in the fall of 2026
SafeRide provides a free drive home within a designated area for all UNB and STU students.
Students can use SafeRide by waiting at one of the pick-up points on campus for a SafeRide Vehicle to arrive, then giving the driver their student ID card (UCard/STUcard) and the address of where they’re going.
SafeRide vans cannot be requested or called (on or off-campus). Students must wait at the designated pickup locations listed below for a van to arrive.
In the case of inclement weather, SafeRide will be cancelled for the safety of our drivers. Notices of SafeRide Cancellations or Delays will be posted on our SafeRide Facebook and UNBSU Instagram pages

Accessibility Saferide Van!
Accessibility is a priority at UNBSU! An accessibility ramp is installed in one of our SafeRide vans to ensure that all student journeys with our SafeRide service are inclusive for everyone. All of our SafeRide drivers are trained on how to use the ramp and will be able to assist students using wheelchairs in getting on and off our wheelchair-accessible SafeRide van.
