Weekend and holiday Zoo Bus service runs May 6 – Sept 4, including Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day. Weekday service runs May 30 – Sept. 1. Zoo Bus fares are $2 each way.
Zoo Bus riders can board at the Statehouse Downtown stop on High Street between State Street and Broad Street or at the Griggs Dam Park and Ride at Riverside Drive and Nottingham Road.
