News Release

(Wednesday, May 2, 2018) – The free shuttle to the City of Rochester Public Market from the East End Parking Garage, 475 E. Main St., will begin its seasonal operating schedule starting Saturday, May 5 and will run every Saturday through Oct. 27. The shuttle will also be in service for Food Truck Rodeo events on the last Wednesday of each month.

“The Market Shuttle is a great option for getting to and from the Market on busy season Saturdays, and for our very popular Food Truck Rodeos,” said Mayor Lovely A. Warren. “The East End Garage offers easy parking on Saturdays just five minutes away from the Market, and this option is especially helpful for Downtown residents and visitors -- many of whom could easily walk to the stop at East Main and Scio.”

On Saturdays, the first shuttle will depart the East End Garage near the corner of East Main and Scio Streets at 8 a.m., and drop off at the Market stop at the Union Street gateway entrance. The last shuttle will return to the East End Garage from the Market stop at 1 p.m. and will run in approximately 25-minute loops. Garage parking rates apply.

On the last Wednesday of the month through September, shuttle service to Food Truck Rodeo events will start at 5 p.m., with the final return ride departing the Market at 9:30 p.m. Evening parking rates apply. Please note, the shuttle will not be in service during the June 27 Food Truck Rodeo due to a conflicting Downtown event.
