New, free shuttle coming to downtown Overland Park this summer
According to the city, starting on Saturday, residents and visitors will be able to catch a free ride on the circulator shuttle, which will take passengers from City Hall to the heart of downtown Overland Park.

The shuttle will run every Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. until July 26.
The city says the new addition offers visitors easier access to downtown, allowing them to spend more time at the farmers' market and local businesses.
'This shuttle service makes visiting Downtown OP even easier,' Mayor Curt Skoog said in a statement. 'It's my hope that visitors and residents will come for the Farmers' Market and stay for our wonderful downtown shops and restaurants before hopping a ride home.'
The shuttle's route will start and end at City Hall; however, there will be four stops in between:
Overland Park City Hall at 85th and Antioch
Santa Fe Drive at Clock Tower Plaza
79th and Marty
Mid-block between 79th and 80th on Floyd
80th and Marty
It will arrive every 15 minutes at these locations, and riders can get on and off at any stop.

On Saturday, June 14, passengers can expect a slightly different route due to road closures for the Downtown Overland Park Art Fair. That route will still begin and end at City Hall but will make a wider loop through downtown.
