SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) -- Sioux Falls downtown trolley service is back on track.
Retired this summer for lack of funding, three area businesses have chipped in to keep the beloved tradition alive.
Sanford Health, Lewis Drug and Howalt+McDowell, a Marsh & McLennan Agency LLC have partnered with Downtown Sioux Falls, Inc. (DTSF) to financially support the service through the summer of 2022.
“We didn’t think it was going to be possible to operate the downtown trolley service this summer,” says Joe Batcheller, DTSF president. “When Sanford Health stepped up to offer support, it got the ball rolling. We’re so thrilled to have the means to have the trolley service available now and for years to come.”
Trolleys will be available during peak visitor hours through downtown Sioux Falls. The “hop on-hop off” historic tours are $2 for adults, while children 12 and under ride for free.
