Transportation to and From Charlottesville

<p>I wonder if any current students or UVa staff could fill me in on the available means/costs of transportation to and from Charlottesville. I am aware of most public and commercial transportation options but I also wonder what kinds of options the University or student services provide. We live in upstate NY and if my son attends UVa, going home over breaks and holidays could become a cost and time issue, so finding good and hopefully reasonable travel means would be a plus.<br>
Some reading the UVa posts may have noticed that I am a UVa grad myself, but I lived in-state and had my own car, and anyway it was over 25 years ago so I am relatively clueless about current options. Any help would be appreciated.</p>

<p>does this help?
