A 24 passenger trolley is coming to Downtown Wheeling. It will run on Main and Market Streets between 10th and 22nd streets. It is meant to transport workers from garages to their workplace as well as make transportation for residents easier. Service will begin in January. Times of operation will likely be 7:30-9:30am and 4-6pm. This project is likely a result of the new Health Plan headquarters which will bring 450 new workers to Downtown each day. The trolley will also link Downtown to the historic Center Market shopping district.

Interesting, especially concerning the fact that actual ridership demand is unknown. Hope it succeeds! Kalamazoo rolls out a trolley each year, but only for the holiday shopping season.
