Free shuttle bus system to run through Adirondack High Peaks
WILMINGTON — A free shuttle bus service designed to relieve traffic congestion in the Adirondack High Peaks region will start running this fall.

The state’s Department of Environmental Conservation’s commissioner, Basil Seggos, says the program is part of an ongoing effort to “promote sustainable tourism in the High Peaks region.”
The shuttles will operate between Lake Placid, the Whiteface Mountain Ski Center and the Whiteface Landing, Copperas Pond and Bear Den trailheads from Sept. 13 to Oct.

The service also will run during Columbus Day weekend from Oct. 11 to 14.
