The Tamsui campus of TKU mainly relies on the Red 27 and Red 28 buses to and from the Tamsui MRT station. The Red 28 route has many passengers due to its short distance and shifts. Since 2015, the university has moved the starting point of the route to the center of the Tamsui campus (next to the administrative building) to provide more convenient ride opportunities for faculties and students. Starting in 2018, the New Taipei City Government Transportation Bureau has set up a U-bike shared bicycle station next to the entrance of Shuiyuan Street, which is free of charge for the first 30 minutes, providing a more economical choice between Tamsui campus and Tamsui MRT station or light rail TKU station. In addition, the university signed an electric locomotive battery exchange station with Gogoro in October 2019, which is supported by teachers, students, and residents. With more than 5,000 people using this service per month, Gogoro later applied to increase the use of electricity, from 15kva to 35kva.
To increase the willingness of faculty, staff, and students to use the bus as a means of commuting, the university has co-organized the "TKU Bus Praising Campaign" with Zhinan Bus Company for 5 consecutive years since 2016. Encouraging faculties and staff to take the bus enthusiastically by taking more trips to win prizes.
