Revised trolley route pushes into Avondale
Revised RIverside trolley route pushes into Avondale, extends hours to weekends.

In the middle of yesterday’s push to build support for the Riverside Trolley once funding ends in September, I began hearing the trolley will be extended and not sent to the corner with our other tried transit ideas.

Metro Jacksonville is saying the trolley will now push into Avondale and service will be extended to weekends, they have an article scheduled to run tomorrow with all the updated information.

We still need to push for support so I encourage everyone to come out to the public meetings this Friday at JTA offices downtown to show love for our little fixed rail gateway drug, the Riverside Trolley.

I’ve set up a Facebook event to Get Jacksonville Back on Tracks which has all the details of Friday’s public meeting. If you can’t make it you can always show your love for the trolley online with a few choice comments.

Friday · 11:00am – 1:00pm
JTA Offices Downtown
100 N Myrtle Avenue
Jacksonville, FL

Friday July 23rd from 11am to 1pm the Jacksonville Transit Authority will host a public hearing to present proposed changes to the transit system (including Riverside Trolley) that go into effect September 6, 2010. Support for the proposed Riverside Trolley service is critical to its continued success.

My comments to JTA:
RE: The Riverside Trolley

I am unable to make it to the meeting regarding the service changes about the Riverside Trolley so I'm submitting my comments here.

The Riverside Trolley is a HUGE boon to the Riverside and surrounding communities. The only problem is: it's coverage is so minimal for a mass transit friendly community. I'd like to see the Riverside Trolley run more comprehensively throughout the Riverside neighborhood, both in route and schedule. … See More

I am a single mom without a car and live in on College Street. I go often to the Park and King area, Margaret and Riverside area, the Five Points area, the Riverside Arts Market area, and all up and down Park and Post streets. My life would improve tenfold if the Trolley covered even half those areas on a regular basis and it would make it worth buying a bus pass every week.

Thank you for your time. Please continue/expand the Riverside Trolley service.
