The Trolley is Running in Riverside and Exceeding Expectations

The new Riverside Trolley service started running Monday, May 5, 2008. And until the end of this week, you can ride for free to get you used to the plan and get you hooked.

The service is brought to you by the JTA
• to reduce traffic congestion and addresses parking issues
• to connect restaurants, shops and businesses
• to support future Riverside area development
• to address interest from major employers and employees along Riverside Avenue

Features
• operates Monday -Friday from 10:45 am to 2:30 pm
• arrives every 10 minutes
• low cash fare of $.50 each way
• Seniors 60 years or older ride Free

The service comes courtesy of a grant by the FDOT and will fund the service for the first year. We need to have a minimum of ten passengers per hour to keep the service running. That shouldn't be too hard!
