Shuttle Service for the Secrest Summer Concert Series

ZANESVILLE, OH- Getting downtown for the Secrest Summer Concert Series just got a lot easier.

In a partnership between the City of Zanesville, SEAT, and J&E Distributors, shuttles to the shows will now be available for concert goers.

Mayor Don Mason says there will be four stops for the shuttle; one at the entrance of Zane’s Landing Park, the SEAT Auxiliary Office on Main St., SEAT’s Main Office on Main St., as well as the County Parking lot located on N. 5th St.

“Because we’ve had to move the Concert Series from where the construction is at Secrest to Zane’s Landing, which by the way so many people for the last 5 years have wanted it there anyway.” Mayor Mason said. “We’ve actually tried to work with SEAT and make a very convenient tool available to the public. So we’ll have SEAT buses running continuously at 5PM and Zane’s Landing will be the destination.”

Mayor Mason says they have also been receiving calls from residents who would like to attend the summer concerts but are unable due to mobility restraints.

He says he hopes the addition of the Shuttles will get more people out to enjoy everything summer nights have to offer here in Zanesville.

“We’re really happy to work with people, even when the concerts were at Secrest, there really weren’t more than a few hundred spaces within a block and a half.” Mason said. “So when we moved it down to Zane’s Landing, we realized that the barking places would be farther away and we just want to make it convenient. Now on the good side, I think, or on the positive side, I think that the river area is going to be cooler from the beginning. Typically with the asphalt at Secrest, it gets pretty hot until the sun goes down and then you have that convection that cools that parking lot.”

The shuttles will operate beginning 1 hour before each show and continue to run until about an hour after the show.
