I was catching up on some reading abou the new ballpark and came across this little gem buried in a N&R story from last week about parking around the new stadium.

A trackless trolley system is being considered, says Mike Bumpass, who in addition to his merchants association role is an official with Downtown Greensboro Inc., which boosts downtown activity.

Trolleys would circulate through the downtown at lunch and on busy evenings, including when the Bats are playing. People could board outside the restaurants and be dropped off at the stadium.
Now that's a great idea. It has all the makings of a fun time downtown. How about a drive downtown, park for free, hop on the trolley with the kids, and spend the evening at a nice new ballyard.



I really hope they pursue this.
