Sun Link runs every 30 minutes on Saturdays, from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., then every 15 minutes the rest of the day till midnight. So there’s plenty of time to do a lot of pre-holiday shopping all over town. Sun Link schedule here: http://www.sunlinkstreetcar.com/schedule/schedule
Woohoo: happy to see lots and lots of people riding free on Sun Link yesterday. We caught it at E. 2nd St/Cherry Ave. and rode all the way down to the Mercado San Agustin, then back to Main Gate Square. Wish there would be more free days on Sun Link’s 4 mile route. There was even a Fare Enforcement Officer on board, probably just to make sure everyone acted orderly, doing their shopping and game watching (UA vs. ASU at 2:30 to 6 p.m.)
