When service begins, 727 will make nine stops throughout downtown St. Petersburg before traveling directly to Tampa International Airport, according to PSTA. The agency said the service will run seven days a week from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. and that the vehicles will include luggage racks.
“This is more than a new route. It’s a transformational investment in how our region moves,” Brad Miller, CEO of PSTA, said. “For the first time, residents and visitors will have a direct, premium transit connection from the heart of downtown St. Petersburg to Tampa International Airport. Whether you’re catching a flight, heading to work or visiting our community, 727 will make traveling across the bay easier, faster and more convenient than ever before.”
