CLEVELAND - The Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (RTA) is beefing up its service to fans coming Downtown Friday and Saturday for the American League Championship Series (ALCS), Cleveland Indians vs the Toronto Blue Jays.

The Walkway

Each day, the Walkway from the Tower City Station opens four hours before the first pitch.

  • Friday: 4 p.m. for the 8:08 p.m. game.
  • Saturday: noon for the 4:08 p.m. game.

Rail service

Customers can be assured that the Blue, Green and Red lines will get you to the ballgame on time and will be there to get you home up to 60 minutes after the game ends -- even if a baseball game goes into extra innings. 

RTA staff will be on hand to sell $5 Round-Trip Tickets at major stations. These passes help customers board more quickly, especially when the game ends.

Many Rapid stations offer free parking. Please follow the signs and park legally.

What's next door

The Calder Cup champion Monsters open their season at Quicken Loans Arena. Game times are 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 14, and 5 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 15. Fans can access the Q from the Tower City Station through the Walkway.
