ETS offering shuttle service to Riverhawks games

Edmonton transit is offering a new way for fans to get to and from Riverhawks games this summer.

Starting May 29 a shuttle service will be available between Churchill Square and Re/Max field, with service beginning an hour and 15 minutes before game time.

Riders will be picked up and dropped off at bus #1246 at 100 Street and 102 Avenue northbound

Game tickets will serve as transit fare for LRT and ETS buses for two hours before and after every home game.

Access to Churchill Square via ETS:

• All three LRT lines (Capital, Metro and Valley Line) stop at Churchill Square.
• Bus routes 2, 5, 7, 8 and 523 travel near Churchill Square.
• Routes 9, 110X, 120X, 500X, 701, 900X and 901 run along 101 Street and Jasper Avenue - just a short walk to Churchill Square.

ETS Park & Ride is available at several LRT stations and transit centres across the city:

• Free LRT Park & Ride at Belvedere, Clareview, Davies and Stadium Transit Centres.
• Please note: On May 29 and July 9, Stadium Transit Centre will not be open for Riverhawks Park & Ride service, as the lot will be used for Football Park & Ride.
• Free bus Park & Ride at Eaux Claires, Lewis Farms and Meadows Transit Centres.
• Paid LRT Park & Ride (operated by other entities) at Century Park Transit Centre and Southgate Mall.

The shuttle service comes as the city looks to redevelop the lands typically used for overflow parking. There are still 2,500 stalls available for people to park.
