It’s about time. People have been pushing for this since 2020.
Arches needs the shuttle service. Look at how much it has helped Bryce and Zion.
Ban the cars put the shuttle system or tour bus parking in in all the stalls. Use driver guides to talk about the trails, crypto-biotic soils…
To quote Edward Abbey-
"In the first place you can't see anything from a car; you've got to get out of the g--damned contraption and walk, better yet crawl, on hands and knees, over the sandstone and through the thornbrush and cactus. When traces of blood begin to mark your trail, you'll see something, maybe."
In a 4-3 vote, the Grand County Commission approved $500,000 for a proposed Arches shuttle program, an idea Commissioner Mary McGann said is “so fiscally irresponsible that I am shocked.”
