Harbor Transit, in cooperation with the Grand Haven Department of Public Safety (GHDPS), provides an ideal designated handicap parking area for special needs guests on Saturday, August 7^th; the day of the Grand Parade, Carnival, Waterfront Show, and ever popular Grand Finale Fireworks Extravaganza. The handicap parking area also provides handicap accessible buses located on Harbor Island, just north of Coho Drive, located a short distance southwest of the drawbridge. 

Each Harbor Transit bus has a lift and is ADA compliant. The parking area is a short distance to the Park & Ride Shuttle pickup and drop off location. Shuttles will then take you from the Harbor Island to the intersection of Washington Avenue and Third Street. This location is only one block from the Arts & Craft Fair, across the street from the carnival, and only three blocks to the waterfront activities. Follow parking directional signs and lighted message boards along US-31 to the site. Tune your AM radio to 1630 for further information.

There is a small fee for the Park & Ride, which is $2.00 per vehicle with an additional $1.00 if there are 1-2 riders, and if there are 3 or more riders, there's an additional cost of $3.00.  No one vehicle will pay more than $5.00. It should be noted that 40% of this fee goes to a local charity in return for them serving at the Park & Ride site.  Harbor Transit receives the rest of the fee to offset personnel and fuel expenses. The Park & Ride Shuttle runs from 9:00 AM until after the fireworks.
