A fleet of shuttles will be deployed to efficiently and safely transport spectators to and from The World Games 2022 events.
The shuttles – which will transport riders at no-cost – are part of the transportation plan called “Ride the Line” that officials from The World Games 2022, the City of Birmingham and the Birmingham-Jefferson County Transit Authority (BJCTA) announced today. The World Games 2022 will take place July 7 – 17.
“This will be the easiest and most efficient way for fans to get to most venues so they can watch these incredible sport competitions. Thanks to a partnership between the City of Birmingham, the BJCTA and the Birmingham Organizing Committee, all Ride the Line shuttles will be free and accessible for fans enjoying The World Games 2022. With Ride the Line, you will get a free ride that will drop you off at the closest entryway,” said Nick Sellers, CEO of The World Games 2022.
“I applaud all of our partners who have diligently worked to develop Ride the Line, which will be a key component in making The World Games experience a success,” said Birmingham Mayor Randall L. Woodfin. “We encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity to travel quickly and efficiently to these history-making events.”
Information about the plan, including a detailed map showing shuttle routes and stops, can be found online at www.twg2022.com/ride.
Ride the Line is the result of months of meticulous planning between TWG 2022 and local transportation leaders and is designed to promote the best experience possible not only for those attending World Games events but also residents and businesses.
The shuttles will be clean and air-conditioned and include information and signage about Ride the Line routes, the sports venues and event schedules that will help fans get where they need to go.
Athletes and media covering the events will have their own transportation systems separate from spectators.
The shuttles will run in loops between the venues from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. during TWG 2022.
