Visitors and residents will have an easier time getting from place to place this summer in Albany. CDTA has kicked off a free downtown shuttle service.
The Capital City Shuttle will run every 20 minutes from 5 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. each Thursday, Friday and Saturday through Labor Day — from Madison and New Scotland to Lark Street, to Washington Avenue and on to downtown, then north on Broadway to the city's Warehouse District. CDTA CEO Carm Basile: "It says 'Capital City Shuttle,' smaller vehicle, not the large 40-foot bus."
Stops include the Washington Avenue Armory, the State Capitol, the Times Union and Albany Capital Centers, the Palace Theatre, Quackenbush Square, and the Corning Riverfront Park.
Riders can download the CityFinder app, which tracks shuttle locations and detailed points of interest.
