Indian Valley Coaster to Stop at Q-Mart on Dec. 12th, Says Mensch

TMA announces special stop for holiday shopping

As part of its holiday shopping tour, the Indian Valley Community Coaster will travel to the Quakertown Farmers Market (Q-Mart) on Saturday, Dec. 12th.  The Coaster will be leaving the Valley Vista Apartments by 10:21 AM and will arrive by the Q-Mart at 10:33 AM.  Residents are encouraged to arrive early, as seating on the Coaster is limited.  The only pickup from the Q-Mart will be at 1:13 pm. 

The Partnership Transportation Management Association of Montgomery County announced the stop as a trial run for the Coaster, based on riders’ surveys earlier this year. 

"The Coaster is a vital addition to our community, and I encourage everyone to utilize this service" said Senator Bob Mensch (R-Bucks, Lehigh, Montgomery and Northampton).  "It is essential that we continue to expand our infrastructure services for Pennsylvania residents." 

The Coaster, which serves Lansdale, Harleysville, Franconia, Souderton and Telford, is operated by The Partnership Transportation Management Association of Montgomery County and averages 500 passengers per month.  Seniors, with a valid SEPTA ID card, ride for free.  Students and people with disabilities, with ID cards, can ride each way for $1, and people under 65 can ride each way for $2.
