Student Safety On and Off Campus
SafeRide, Night Shuttle & Blue Light Phones
Safe Ride (742-RIDE)
Safe Ride is a service provided through Student Service Fees for taxi pickup anywhere in Lubbock and delivery to one’s residence. It is available from 8:00pm - 4:00am nightly by calling 742-RIDE. The only requirement is that students must have a valid Texas Tech ID.
We have also recently instituted SafeRide pick-up points on Broadway near Cricketts.

Night Shuttle (742-NITE)
In addition to the on-campus bus routes, which run during daytime hours until 7:00pm, Citibus also provides a Night Shuttle service available to students desiring on-campus transportation after hours until 3:00am. This service may be requested by calling 742-NITE to arrange for a shuttle to pick a student up and take them to their on-campus destination.
Blue Light Phones
Safety on campus is something the SGA feels must be addressed before a problem, not afterward. For this reason, Student Government has promoted the implementation of Blue Light Emergency Phones at various locations around Tech’s campus. Information on these phones and other similar services is available in the SGA office.
