Getting To Brown CS By Public Transit

Last updated: April, 2024

Brown University is accessible from anywhere in Rhode Island via Rhode Island Public Transit Authority (RIPTA) bus. Bus and trolley routes terminate in Kennedy Plaza. Once there, these bus routes will take you through to Thayer Street (a block away from our building):

Schedules for all of these can be found online. The fare for both the bus and the trolley is $2. You may transfer at discounted rates; see the RIPTA website for detailed fare information.

Get off at the stop immediately following the tunnel. Walk half a block downhill on Thayer Street (past the Starbucks). At the intersection, cross both Waterman and Thayer Streets, and walk past the 14-story Sciences Library. The CIT (a 6-story red brick building) will be on your right.
