December 2, 2024 (Stateline, Nev.) – The Tahoe Transportation District (TTD) is enhancing its Route 50 Express Service to accommodate attendees of select Tahoe Blue Event Center events, starting with the John Legend concert on December 6. This extended service offers a convenient, reliable, and FREE transportation option for eventgoers, with plans to expand service to additional events throughout 2024 and 2025.

The Route 50 Express will operate between the South Y Transit Center and the Kingsbury Transit Center, with stops outlined in the schedule below.
