Campus Shuttle Services

King Transportation provides scheduled campus shuttle services for schools, colleges, and universities across Montgomery County, PA and the surrounding region. Routes are built around class schedules, shift changes, and event calendars. We run shuttle circuits between campuses, parking areas, student residences, dining halls, and program locations on fixed timetables that students and staff can count on.

Contracts are available for a full academic year, a single semester, or a defined event period. Routes are adjusted throughout the term as schedules change. Each shuttle program is assigned a dedicated account manager who handles route coordination, schedule updates, and any day-of changes.

Campus Shuttle Options

• Intercampus shuttles — Scheduled routes between multiple campus locations, timed to class periods and shift changes
• Parking lot shuttles — Circulation between remote parking areas and campus buildings during peak hours
• Student housing shuttles — Fixed routes between off-campus housing, dorms, and academic buildings
• Athletic campus shuttles — Dedicated routes between athletic facilities, training centers, and main campus
• Event shuttles — Temporary shuttle service for commencement, orientation, homecoming, and campus events
• ADA-accessible shuttles — Wheelchair-accessible vehicles integrated into regular shuttle routes or on dedicated accessible circuits

How It Works

Contact King Transportation with your campus locations, student volume, and schedule requirements. A school transportation specialist will build a proposed route plan with pickup/drop-off points, vehicle assignments, and a timetable. Once approved, your dedicated account manager coordinates driver assignments, monitors route performance, and handles any adjustments throughout the contract period.

Vehicles are equipped with GPS monitoring where available, so campus administrators can track active shuttle routes. All drivers complete FBI fingerprinting, PA child abuse history clearances, and criminal background screenings before assignment.

Field Trip Transportation

King Transportation handles field trip transportation for schools across Greater Philadelphia. Whether the destination is a museum in Center City, a nature center in the suburbs, or a historical site in another state, our team plans the route, matches the right vehicle to your group size, and coordinates timing with your trip organizers.

Drivers receive detailed itineraries in advance, including pickup times, destination addresses, any intermediate stops, and return schedules. For multi-stop trips, your reservationist maps the sequence to minimize drive time and maximize time at each location. All vehicles are maintained by King's in-house shop and inspected before every trip.

Field Trip Services

• Day trips — Museum visits, zoo and aquarium trips, historical site tours, outdoor education programs, and science center excursions throughout the region
• Multi-stop itineraries — Trips with multiple destinations planned in the most efficient order, with timed arrivals at each stop
• Long-distance trips — Overnight or full-day excursions to destinations outside the immediate Philadelphia area
• Small group transportation — Sedans and minivans for trips with fewer than 10 students, sized to the actual group rather than a full bus
• Large group transportation — Ford Transits, minibuses, and motorcoaches for classes, grade-level trips, or multiple classrooms traveling together
• Wheelchair-accessible field trips — ADA-capable vehicles so every student can travel to the destination together

Booking a Field Trip

Contact King Transportation with the trip date, pickup and destination addresses, group size, and any accessibility requirements. A reservationist will recommend the right vehicle, confirm the itinerary, and return a quote. For recurring trips or district-wide field trip programs, ask about contracted rates.

Athletics Transportation

King Transportation provides team and staff transportation for school athletics programs across Greater Philadelphia. We handle transportation to practices, games, scrimmages, tournaments, and athletic events at every level, from youth and middle school through high school and college programs.

Vehicles are matched to your group size. Coaching staff traveling separately can use sedans or SUVs. Small teams fit in Ford Transit vans. Full rosters with equipment travel in minibuses or motorcoaches with luggage storage. For programs with recurring schedules, King offers seasonal contracts so transportation is locked in for the entire season.
