Charter bus service possible for 2018 Stompede
The city is looking at the idea of providing a charter bus service to and from the Grande Prairie Stompede this year.
Assistant Transit Manager Steve Harvard says the service would pick up and drop people off during the four-day event.
“The service that we are looking at providing is a 30-minute frequency between downtown and Evergreen Park during the operating hours of the Stompede,” said Harvard, following a presentation at a city committee meeting Tuesday morning.
On top of parking issues at the event, Councillor Chris Thiessen brought up drinking and driving as another perk to implementing the service.
