Bus
Trinity Metro bus service will not be an optimal alternative due to traffic congestion leading up to the start time of the Parade. Additionally, many routes stop running early on Sunday with the exception of routes 1, 2, 46 and 89. These routes will operate on 15-minute frequency and run until around 11 p.m. on Sunday. All bus routes that extend into downtown will terminate at Fort Worth Central Station.
Fort Worth Bike Sharing
It may be a little chilly, but hopping on a bike from Fort Worth Bike Sharing is a great fun way to get some exercise and enjoy your quick ride to Parade of Lights.
