If you are First Monday shopper, we have great news for you. A new trolley services operated by the East Texas Council of Governments and funded in part by the Canton Visitors Bureau is set to shuttle people around the First Monday grounds. It has been several years since there has been an organized shuttle service moving shoppers around the grounds.
Each of the shuttles are handicap accessible and driven by highly trained operators employed by ETCOG. Although its primary use will be to move shoppers, the shuttles will have the ability to move some products around as well.
Stops will include the west gate of First Monday, the Civic Center, Trade Center 1, Downtown, Old Mill Marketplace and more. Customers staying in local motels will have the ability to call and be picked up directly from the lobby and dropped off at the gates of First Monday.
This should make exploring the First Monday grounds easier for shoppers and give them the ability to leave there car in one lot and not have to pay multiple parking fees to explore different parts of the grounds.
