Just for planning information, we only operate on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays at present. Friday operating hours are 6 PM to 10 PM, Saturday operating hours are 12 PM to 12 AM and Sunday operating hours are 12 PM to 6 PM. Adult fares are $1.25 one way, $2.50 round trip and $3.00 for unlimited ride day pass. Regular fares are in effect Fridays and Saturdays with a 25 cent discount fare on Sundays. The discount fare is subsidized by the Fourth Avenue Merchant's Association (of which we are members) to encourage people to shop Fourth Avenue on Sundays.

Fourth Avenue is really a neat place. It has a wide variety of restaurants and shops-all locally owned businesses with only one franchise business on Fourth Avenue proper-the Dairy Queen. Still, it's a locally owned franchise. If you like vintage clothes, Fourth Avenue's the place to be-at least four resale shops that specialize in vintage clothing are on the avenue.
