RTS plans bus detours for Pride Parade

Gainesville residents looking for a quick ride may encounter delays during Saturday's Pride Parade.

RTS Routes 15, 400 and 410 will have detours from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m., bypassing University Avenue between Southwest 10th Street and Southwest First Street.

The routes will detour their 12:30 p.m. departures from the Gainesville Mall, Oaks Mall and Santa Fe College respectively. They will be reversed for their 1:30 p.m. departures.

Chip Skinner, RTS senior marketing and communications specialist, said that only two buses on each route would be affected during the hour-long event.

Riders should plan accordingly so that they will arrive at their destinations on time.

"People just need to be patient with us that we'll get them to their destination," he said. "We always try to keep our buses on schedule and cross-reference with ongoing construction on Main Street and Depot Avenue."

RTS will have detours again for the homecoming parade on Oct. 16.
