The shuttle service will begin at 7:00 p.m. and continue until 9:45 p.m. to deliver riders to Bridgeview Park and then the first shuttle will depart 15 minutes after the fireworks show is over to return people to their required stop.
Strollers are welcome on the shuttle if they can fold and fit on a seat, but they ask that no wagons are brought on the buses. Although the service is complimentary, donations will be accepted to help offset the cost of the fireworks display.
