Johns Hopkins Transportation Services; publicly known as Johns Hopkins Shuttle or JHU Shuttle, is a privately-operated transit service in Baltimore, Maryland. It is unknown when actual revenue shuttle service began, but ridership growth have since risen higher each quarter year. The emergence of this private-service throughout midtown Baltimore have gained the interests of many non-Johns Hopkins personnel or students, therefore in 2011 all boarders must display a Johns Hopkins identification. The appearance of heavy-duty buses throughout the city has increased the flow of ridership in a portion of Charles Village and Mount Vernon among other transit agencies, in retrospect MTA Maryland (largest system in Maryland) and the Charm City Circulator (Baltimore's premier "free-fare" service). The rapid increase of ridership and frequent-demand for service, introduced a "non-stop" express line, along with several parking shuttles and construction of more parking facilities. Johns Hopkins inherited the new advance, real-time bus information system, also known as NEXTbus to give a waiting rider the opportunity to get real-time bus schedule and arrival information.

The expansion of the Johns Hopkins Medical System (or "Johns Hopkins Hospital") will increase the dyer demand for services the outer-lying areas and an overhaul of the current fleet. Many of the heavy-duty buses are second-hand units from other systems. Several were purchased from Foothill Transit in the San Gabriel Valley of California and other agencies whom retired and auction their vehicles. The majority of the fleet consists of Gillig Phantoms, with lighter-service consist of Ford vans and cut-away buses. The fleet in the in the foreseeable future will expand to articulated-buses to handle the over-sized payload that the current single-body (40-foot) buses is stressed under.
