CORONADO, CA (May 2, 2016) – Coronado is pleased to offer interior advertising space on the City’s popular Free Summer Shuttle buses. Ad spaces are available to local Coronado businesses and groups advertising local services and events. This year, the City has contracted for four shuttles.

Advertisements on Coronado’s free Summer Shuttle buses are highly visible and an effective way to reach tourists as well as locals. There are more than 10 available spaces per bus, which will run from May 27 to September 26. This exposes the ads to an estimated 1,000 riders per day, a mix of residents and tourists.

Ads must promote Coronado tourism and the community and can include services, products and events that appeal to visitors, such as special events, local history and culture, local art and artists, and offerings from local businesses and retail stores where visitors can shop or be pampered. Ads are displayed for a minimum of one month and can be purchased for up to four months. They must comply with the stated goals of the Coronado Summer Shuttle program and Metropolitan Transit System ad regulations. Cost is $125 per month per ad per bus for for-profit organizations and businesses, and $75 for nonprofit groups.

Advertisers who meet the above requirements can reserve a maximum of 12 ads, or one ad per bus per month for the full Summer Shuttle program. The City will accept ad reservations beginning Friday, May 6. Advertisers must provide all artwork for ads. See attached for full pricing information, signage and other details.

The City offers the free service to reduce vehicle trips along the Orange Avenue corridor during the peak summer season. The Free Summer Shuttle program is sponsored by the City and the Coronado Tourism Improvement District. Shuttle Service to the Cays, new this year, is managed by Loews Coronado.
