Connective Corridor Shuttle Bus offers free, convenient transportation to Syracuse cultural eventsJanuary 24, 2007Kevin Morrowkdmorrow@syr.edu

The Connective Corridor Shuttle Bus (Centro Route #543) will operate during the winter and spring months on Thursdays and Fridays from 5 to 11:40 p.m. and Saturdays from 1 to 11:40 p.m. The free shuttle service provides a convenient way to travel to cultural events and happenings at Syracuse University and in downtown Syracuse, including lectures and concerts on campus, theater presentations at Syracuse Stage, and Syracuse Symphony Orchestra and Syracuse Opera performances at the John H. Mulroy Civic Center, to name a few.

Riders can also take the shuttle during “TH3: A City Wide Art Open” (http://www.th3syracuse.com/00_home.htm), in which the Connective Corridor’s visual arts venues remain open throughout the evening on the third Thursday of each month.

Along with its regular Thursday-Saturday schedule, the shuttle will run on additional dates and times coinciding with special events in the community. Examples include the University Lectures presentation by Wade Davis, explorer-in-residence at The National Geographic Society, Feb. 28 at 7:30 p.m. in Hendricks Chapel; the University Lectures presentation by political analyst Norman Ornstein March 6 at 7:30 p.m. in Hendricks Chapel; and April 18-22 during the Syracuse International Film & Video Festival.
