Electric buses are eco-friendly, comfy, quiet, and air-pollution free. It helps reduce carbon emissions, and the Taichung City Government highly promoted it in the past few years. CYUT welcomed the extension of Electric Bus route 249 to campus and hosted a launching ceremony on the school anniversary day (2022.03.26).

The route runs between Taichung Station and CYUT via Taiping Downtown and Eastern District, making sixteen runs daily during the trial. CYUT aims at providing an environmentally friendly and safe public transport network to minimize motorcycle driving and, ultimately, accidental rates. The existing network provides six routes options (131, 132, 133, 151, 158, 294), carrying passengers around Taichung City conveniently and inexpensively, including Taichung Station, Yizhong Commercial Area, Northern District, High-Speed Rail Taichung Station, and Taiping Commercial Area.
