Tucson's transit services are helping attendees of Tucson's All Souls Procession this Sunday, Nov. 4.

The Sun Tran is providing additional services to Route 22 and will have more buses between 4-7p.m. The Sun Link Streetcar is also extending its hours till 10:30 p.m. and parking garages will be open 24/7 throughout the weekend. 

Sun Tran uses aim to pick up passengers every 5-7 minutes near the Ronstadt Transit Center, located on 6th Avenue and north of Congress Street and will detour around the procession path.

The buses will drop participants at the All Souls Procession's start point, at the southeast corner of Speedway Boulevard and Grande Avenue.

The All Souls Procession starts at 6 p.m. and will end at the Mercado District. After the procession stops, attendees can board the Sun Link Streetcar at the Mercado District Stop until 10:30 p.m.
