HANSCOM AIR FORCE BASE, Mass. – Government travelers here have access to a no-cost shuttle service during normal business hours through the 66th Logistics Readiness Squadron.
The squadron provides transportation services for official business on the installation or to Logan International Airport in Boston for employees traveling on official travel orders.
Requests for airport transportation must be made online via the unit’s SharePoint site 48 hours prior to travel at https://usaf.dps.mil/teams/22388/eshuttle/SitePages/Home.aspx.
“The free service reduces inconvenience and expense for Hanscom travelers who arrange for their own commercial ground transportation to Logan Airport,” said William Deware, 66 LRS ground transportation supervisor.
The service is available for military and federal civilian travelers departing from and arriving to Logan International Airport Monday through Friday during normal business hours. There are no shuttles to Logan after 3:30 p.m. or from Logan after 4 p.m. The service is not available on holidays or weekends.
While service is generally available only for official travel, according to LRS, non-official travelers may be eligible if space is available. More information about this and other topics can be found at the frequently asked questions section on SharePoint.
Short- or long-term parking is available behind building 1103. Travelers must first obtain an assigned parking spot from the 66th Security Forces Squadron by contacting the law enforcement desk at 781-225-5000.
In addition to ground transportation services, LRS offers U-Drive-It vehicles to organizations and temporarily assigned personnel on official orders.
As defined by Air Force Instruction 24-301, “the UDI vehicle is available to organizations and activities of the installation for temporary support of official use functions and operated by personnel assigned to the using agency in support of home-station mission, contingencies, TDY [temporary duty] support and combat service support operations.”
Use of these vehicles is generally limited to a 72-hour period and there are some limitations associated with the program. However, LRS will consider each request on a case-by-case basis.
To submit a request for local travel, UDI support or for additional information, please contact LRS at 781-225-5830 or by email at 66.LRS.LGRDDO.Vehicle.Request@us.af.mil.
