Calling all Tiger-Cats fans!
Ticket to Ride
With your game day ticket, you can ride HSR for free, from two hours before kick-off all the way until the end of service. Catch all the action, then sit back and relax on the way home.
Want VIP treatment?
- Take the shuttle for a direct ride to and from the action!
- Shuttle service is available from CF Lime Ridge Mall, Eastgate Square, and University Plaza.
HSR in partnership with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, is continuing the very successful promotion that started in 2005. Tiger-Cats fans will be allowed to board HSR vehicles 2 hours prior to kick off free of charge with a valid game ticket.
Express Shuttles
In addition to regularly scheduled HSR service, there will be Express Shuttle services from three different locations. The shuttle will travel to and from Tim Hortons Field for all Tiger-Cats home games (including post-season). The locations allow Ticats fans to utilize "Park and Ride" lots.
Lime Ridge Mall
North end of the mall by old Sears location and Lime Ridge Mall Transit Terminal Platform #5
Eastgate Square
Southwest corner of the mall parking lot (corner of Queenston Road and Kenora Avenue)
University Plaza
Transit terminal platform, easternmost bus stop (route 10 bus stop)
To the game
- First trip departs the three locations two hours prior to the game start time.
- Last trip departs the three locations 30 minutes prior to game start time.
- At least two vehicles will be allocated to each of the routes and depart at least every 30 minutes. The time interval between the two shuttles traveling in the same direction will depend on the travel time required to and from Tim Hortons Field.
