Taking public transportation to Thunder can save you time--and introduce you to some interesting folks (like the Galt House employee who was drinking in the back of my bus last year).

TARC will provide special service to downtown for Thunder Over Louisville [3] on Saturday, April 17. Beginning at 3:30 p.m. buses will be added to the 14 routes that provide service into downtown Louisville. These buses will operate in between regularly scheduled service on these routes.

The routes are:

#2-Second St. (Crittenden Drive to downtown only)
#4-Fourth St.
#6-Sixth St.
#15-Market St.
#17-Bardstown Road
#18-Preston/18th St.
#19-Muhammad Ali Blvd.
#21- Chestnut St.
#23-Broadway
#31-Middletown
#43-Poplar Level Road/Portland
#55-Westport Road
#63-Crums Lane
#71-Jeffersonville (Court and Spring to Allison Lane and 10th St.)

Following the fireworks, TARC buses will provide continuous service from downtown Louisville until 11:30 p.m. The map at the beginning of this article shows where to board the buses after the fireworks. Customers should pay particular attention to the five downtown boarding locations as buses have restricted downtown travel. These are the only downtown locations to catch buses after the event. There will be no return trips to Indiana due to closure of 2nd Street Bridge.
