Title: Food truck Wednesdays + Trolley
Post by: bacjz00 on May 09, 2018, 11:12:35 am
I noticed that during the Enviro Expo back in April that they ran a free trolley service around Downtown from 11-1, in order to get people over to Guthrie Green.  There was a published schedule for the stops and it ran really smoothly! This would be an awesome thing to do each and every Wednesday in order to get more people over to the food trucks.  While it's not THAT far to walk from the CBD to the Green, this would offer a massive amount of convenience and I think it would be a boon to the vendors.  Thoughts?

I noticed that during the Enviro Expo back in April that they ran a free trolley service around Downtown from 10-2, in order to get people over to Guthrie Green.  There was a published schedule for the stops and it ran really smoothly! This would be an awesome thing to do each and every Wednesday in order to get more people over to the food trucks.  While it's not THAT far to walk from the CBD to the Green, this would offer a massive amount of convenience and I think it would be a boon to the vendors.  Thoughts?

I agree it is not really a long walk, but when it gets 90+ (like today) it can be a rather unpleasant walk.  I think adding the trolley is a great way to boost Food Truck Wednesday, but it needs to be promoted.

Here was the flyer printed up for the Enviro Expo.  It's a very good concept I think.
