NFTA Metro's Niagara Falls Trolley Service Returns
NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. - The Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority announced its seasonal launch of Metro’s Trolley Bus Service to guests at participating Niagara Falls hotels and motels beginning Friday, May 23 through Sunday, October 26, 2025. Metro’s Niagara Falls Trolley buses will serve Niagara Falls Boulevard, Pine Avenue, the Niagara Falls International Airport, and downtown Niagara Falls, USA.
Special trolley stop signs indicate where riders can board a Metro trolley. In downtown Niagara Falls, stops include the Aquarium of Niagara Falls, the Seneca Niagara Casino, and across from the Niagara Falls USA Official Visitor Center at First Street and Rainbow Blvd. Service will also be provided to hotels and shops along Third Street, Rainbow Blvd., and Buffalo Avenue. In addition, stops are located along Pine Avenue, at the Fashion Outlets of Niagara Falls, and at several motels along Niagara Falls Blvd. and Little Italy.
“We are excited to once again partner with the NFTA for the Niagara Falls Trolley service, which has proven to be such a valuable service for the tourists of the City of Niagara Falls,” said Frank Strangio, President of the Niagara Falls Hotel Association and hotel owner.
The Trolley Day Pass, supported by the Niagara Falls bed tax, allows guests of participating Niagara Falls hotels and motels free access to Metro’s trolley bus service and the entire Metro Bus and Rail system in Niagara and Erie Counties. Participating hotels and motels will issue free trolley day passes through Token Transit this year. Guests must download or access the Token Transit app on their mobile devices to receive their passes. Passes may be obtained at any time of stay but must be activated before boarding a Metro trolley. The trolley day pass allows hotel and motel guests to ride free all day wherever Metro service is available.
“The NFTA’s trolley service provides an efficient transportation option for hotel and motel guests to easily move around the City of Niagara Falls and throughout Western New York,” said James Morrell, NFTA’s Director of Public Transit. “We look forward to serving the community’s transportation needs for the busy tourism season.”
Operation hours are from 9 a.m. until midnight as follows: May 23-June 8, weekends only (Fri–Sun), June 9-September 28 (daily), and October 3-October 26, weekends only (Fri-Sun). All trolley route maps and schedules can be found online at nfta.com/metro, #NFTrolley, or upon visiting the Niagara USA Visitors Center at 10 Rainbow Blvd.
Those without a trolley day pass can ride the trolley by paying Metro's regular adult fare of $2, $1 for children (5-11 yrs.), seniors (65 yrs. and over), disabled, and Medicare clients with valid I.D. All other Metro passes are also valid. Children four and younger ride free; limit to three children per fare-paying adult.
