Explore Elmhurst Trolley Returns for Summer Weekend Runs

Elmhurst Chamber of Commerce - Explore Elmhurst Trolley Returns for Summer Weekend Runs

The Explore Elmhurst Express Trolley program offers residents and visitors a FREE 30-minute ride around the lively City of Elmhurst, connecting the shopping districts of downtown Elmhurst, Spring Road, and York and Vallette.

Making six stops across the shopping districts, the 16-week trolley will run every Friday and Saturday from May 31 through September 14 from 12:00 noon to 12:00 midnight. No tickets are required.

The trolley is equipped with a Global Positioning System (GPS), which allows riders to track the vehicle’s location along its route.

The route travels to different shopping districts in Elmhurst, making stops near shops, restaurants, and entertainment. An audio narrative will inform riders about highlighted areas of the city.
