Recent rain in Hall County has prompted a recommendation for exhibitors and visitors to utilize free shuttle services if they are planning on attending Husker Harvest Days.

“The problem isn’t with the roadways, but with the event site parking lots,” said Captain Chris Kolb, Commander Troop C- Grand Island.  “Anything other than a four-wheel drive vehicle runs the risk of becoming stuck as the parking lots are extremely muddy.”

To facilitate an uninterrupted and safe flow of traffic to the event site, the Nebraska State Patrol is recommending only four- wheel drive vehicles (without trailers), be utilized to drive to the site.  Husker Harvest Days provides free shuttle service from several locations in Grand Island. Locations and times of the shuttle service can be found under the under the Directions to the Show link under the Visitor Resources tab on the Husker Harvest Days website, www.HuskerHarvestDays.com

Captain Kolb said, “By limiting the number of vehicles, we hope to prevent significant traffic backups on Husker Highway, should vehicles become disabled in muddy parking areas.”
