Nightlife Transit
A private transportation service is launching in June that will connect Downtown, MTC, Blackstone and Benson. It will run from 9 to 2:25 AM. Monthly passes or pay per ride available, not cost yet.
Re: Nightlife Transit
I like this option a lot. Yes at the end of the night you still have to get home from where you parked. But I constantly run into problems with friends wanting to be dt or dundee or benson and this way people can connect later in the night. Not a perfect solution, but I will utilize this.
Re: Nightlife Transit
I doubt I would use it enough to buy a monthly pass. I might for June with the CWS and all, but I could see myself using it for sure. I am walking distance from Blackstone too so I could even use it for shows in Benson if no one is wanting to drive. Really for $5 bucks it would be cheeper than an Uber or Lyft.
Re: Nightlife Transit
This is a FANTASTIC idea. Metro is really missing out on an opportunity with this one. If this service becomes popular there will definitely be much fewer drink drivers on the roads on Fridays and Saturdays.

Re: Nightlife Transit
I wish they could replace the Midtown stop with an AkSarBen stop. After 9 there really isn't much to do in MTC anyway unless you count the Moon at Midtown but I think that's more Blackstone.
Great idea now that there are multiple entertainment districts in town.
