A free Summer Shuttle will make its weekend inaugural voyage Saturday with regular trips from City Hall to downtown pier area.
The shuttle will run through Sept. 5, making stops at the northwest corner of Main Street and Orange Avenue, and on Fifth Street at The Strand. It will operate on weekends from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. The shuttle will also run on Memorial Day and Labor Day, but will not be in service on Independence Day.
Shuttle riders can take advantage of free parking in the City Hall parking lot, located at Main and Yorktown Avenue and board the shuttle at one of the two available stops in the lot.
The Summer Shuttle is a pilot program for 2010, and funded by Air Quality Management District to help alleviate congestion.
