Free Bus Service for Parade

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): You know downtown Fort Wayne is going to be packed with traffic and spectators for the Three Rivers Festival Parade so here's an option…catch a free ride with Citilink. The bus service is offering free rides from 7:45 to 6:15 Saturday. And if you aren't close to a bus route, they have that covered too, with park and ride locations at five area shopping centers.

Verbatim from Citilink Press Release

Not only is it easier to come downtown on the bus for the Three Rivers Festival Parade, than having to find a parking place, but your ride will be FREE! Wave to the Citilink Bus in the parade, stick around and enjoy the Chalk Walk, Marketplace, Art in the Park, etc. then catch the bus to go home.

Don’t live on a bus route? We are encouraging folks to Park & Ride at the following locations:

Meijer, Lima Road – Route 4, Wells/Ludwig Meijer, Illinois Road – Route 2, Times Corners Georgetown Square – Route 2, Georgetown Southtown Centre – Routes 7 & 8, Calhoun/Anthony Lincoln Plaza – Route 10, New Haven Not sure where or when to catch the bus?
