ABC Ramps will allow those who share rides to work or school to park at ramps A and B behind the Target Center without paying the daily rate as part of its Carpool Wednesday offer.
Drivers must arrive with at least one passenger between 6:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. and be in the designated carpool lane once they enter either ramp. Monitors will give drivers a validation ticket upon entrance. The ticket must be filled out and returned to the cashier on the way out.
Ramp A is located at 7th Street and Interstate Hwy. 394, and Ramp B is at 5th Street and I-394.
Motorists who are interested in sharing rides or setting up a carpool can get help through the Metro Transit Rideshare program. For details see www.metrotransit.org or call 612-373-3333.
