Red Canyon Transit – Friendly, Reliable Service
Brian Cambria, of Red Canyon Transit, said “Sometimes visitors spend more time hunting for parking than they do at the overlooks,” he continues, “On some days, parking can fill up well before noon. We encourage everyone to park at the shuttle station and ride the free bus. Our professional, friendly, experienced drivers help visitors feel welcome and have more time to do the things they come for.” With that in mind, the free shuttle service provided to park visitors is a great option to consider when planning your trip.
