Route tB.x EIIJJ Avenue Exp

We have started a new service called the Route 18X Elm Avenue Express. This new service provides a convenient alternative to the Route 18 Delaware Avenue line which has been rerouted due to the mudslide and street closing on Delaware Avenue. We are offering an attractive alternative for existing CDTA customers and are looking for new customers who want to leave the driving to us.

We hope that you will give the new Route 18X a try. Board it in Delmar, or drive your car to our conveniently located park & ride at Elm Avenue and Route 32. The lot s:an accommodate close to 120 cars.

Travel time from the Elm Avenue lot to the ~mpire State Plaza is less than 20 minutes. The Route 18X schedule provides 5 r trips from Delmar to Albany in the morning, and 5 return trips in the afternoon. A schedule and route is displayed below. Please give us a try!

Thank you for your patience during this difficult time. If you have questions about the new Route 18X, the Route 18 Delaware Avenue or any other CDTA service, please call our Customer Information Center at 482-8822 or visit us on-line at ~ www.cdta.org. · ·

FAMOUS LAST WORDS: "Don't Worry, I'm a good driver!" FRIENDS DON'T LET FRIENDS DRIVE DRUNK If you drink alcohol and then get behind the wheel - no matter how good a driver you are- you become a danger to yourself, your passengers, pedestrians and other motorists. In other words, you're "very stupid." Not only stupid, but dangerous. Sponsored by:
