Free Frankenmuth Shuttle will return for the rest of the year 2026

  The Frankenmuth Shuttle will return to the city starting Friday, July 31 1, with plans to operate until December 27.

  Operated through Saginaw Transit Authority Regional Services (STARS) of Saginaw, the passenger buses will be in town every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, from noon until 8pm. Two busses will run continuous loops. The only exception is Friday and Saturday, September 11-12, as the Frankenmuth Auto Fest converges on downtown and Heritage Park. They also will not operate on Friday. December 25.

  This free Frankenmuth Shuttle will loop continuously, visiting each of the 15 conveniently-located stops roughly every 20 minutes. All shuttle stops are marked with a red 𠇏rankenmuth Shuttle” road sign.

  This shuttle makes designated stops throughout town, along with less-congested free parking options. While set up for guests of Frankenmuth, area residents are also encouraged to use this service and play tourist in their own town.

  Everyone is welcome to use this free shuttle service, meaning persons can park once and enjoy the community without moving their vehicles.

  The shuttles are ADA compliant and ADA service animals are permitted. Emotional support animals and all other pets must be secured in a crate in order to ride.

  All shuttle stops are marked with red Frankenmuth Shuttle road signs and trash cans. Public parking will be marked as Uptown North Main and Michigan’s Heroes Museum.

  Additionally, a connection to STARS will be offering a free express route between Frankenmuth and Saginaw. The express will pick up and drop off at Uptown North Main and the STARS hub. These departure times can be found on the STARS website or visiting Frankenmuth.org. ........
