| Abstract | In anticipation of increased visitation expected for the Lewis & Clark bicentennial, the park, Sunset Empire Transportation District, and other partners implemented a seasonal summer bus service that provided an alternative to driving to Fort Clatsop. Service commenced in the summer of 2004. This report documents, from the perspective of the park, the lessons learned from the planning, implementation and ongoing operation of this alternative transportation service. Major issues discussed include the visitor experience, partnerships, and perceptions of parking availability. Its audience is those who may be planning transportation systems at other parks. |
