Escort Van Service      


Campus Security operates an escort van service daily from 5:00 pm to 3:00 am.  This free service picks up and drops off students from campus and other locations within a mile radius of the Homewood Campus.  Call X6-8700 to contact the van service.  The Security Department will also provide an on-campus walking escort.  After 10:00p.m., the Escort Van Service will not transport passengers to commercial establishments.  Call for Security Patrol vehicles for transportation after 3:00 am.

  • Each driver has the right to deny service to any disruptive person.
  • In the event of a rider’s extreme intoxication and disruptive behavior, security will be notified to escort the intoxicated party to the hospital.
  • Baggage brought onto any van must fit on the rider’s lap.
  • Groceries should be limited to what a rider can carry.
  • There will be a limit of 2 guests per authorized JHU rider.
  • Riders are expected to be waiting and ready for the escort van at the time of their van request.
  • Riders are expected to respect the driver and in doing so, should not request the driver to exceed the service area limits or to help move furniture or boxes.
  • Because of demands on the service, drivers are unable to wait for extended periods of time for any rider.
  • Due to the heavy demand for this service, please do not call back unless you have been waiting longer than 20 minutes.
