In 2023, Hatyai University observed and was concerned that the students' demands increased for vehicle service for picking up and dropping off at the University. For this reason, the University arranged another electric golf cart, so there are currently three golf carts for free student vehicle service inside Hatyai University.
The total number of shuttle trips is 10 rounds a day. The shuttle service’s route starts at U-Plaza Building at the parking area, then to the student’s dormitory, Hatyai Business School Building (Building 10), the Sport Center and Student Union Building, Phuket Building (Building 8), Praneetsilp Art and Culture Center, the soccer field, the tennis court, Narathiwat Building (Building 2), and ends at Songkhla Building (Building 1)
Hatyai University has applied information technology systems to manage transportation within the university area by using a keycard system that utilizes student or staff ID cards at the entrance and exit gates of the university. This system helps in counting the number of vehicles entering the university area. Additionally, it enhances safety by screening vehicles from external individuals who wish to enter the university, requiring them to scan their ID cards at the camera. This allows for the recording of information about external individuals entering the university. Hatyai University has consistently used this system to manage transportation on campus, and over time, improvements and modifications have been made to enhance the convenience and efficiency of the system.
