Free Homecoming shuttles offered from Dearborn High School and West Village Drive

Make your visit to Dearborn’s Homecoming festival August 1-3, 2008 as easy as possible by using the shuttle services offered by the City of Dearborn.

Two options exist: free parking and free shuttle service from Dearborn High School, sponsored by Henry Ford health System, and free shuttle service from the west Dearborn business district along West Village Drive, from Military to Monroe.

All shuttles take visitors to the festival grounds at Ford Field Park in Dearborn.
The Dearborn High shuttle will pick visitors up at the school parking lot, on the west side of Outer Drive, north of Michigan Avenue. It runs from 6 to 11 p.m. Friday, and noon to 11:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday of Homecoming weekend. Parking is free.

The shuttles are Dearborn Public Schools buses and include handicapped accessible buses and will make continuous loops between the festival grounds and the school. There is no established time schedule.

Another free shuttle is available on West Village Drive, from 5 to 8:30 p.m. Friday and noon to 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The City of Dearborn shuttle vans will stop along West Village Drive from Monroe to Military. Parking fees may apply, except on Sunday. On Friday and Saturday, parking is at a special festival rate of $1 in the West Parking Deck only.

The Ford Field parking lot also provides a limited number of spaces, including handicapped parking, for $5 per car.

Note that the Elm Street commercial parking lot is no longer used for Homecoming parking or shuttles. Do not park in that lot.
