What?
- Reserve a seat on a manifested tunnel bus designed to get you to the action faster at Comerica Park, Ford Field and Joe Louis Arena/Cobo Hall. Enjoy reduced wait times, no lines, and a guaranteed seat on the direct bus to the home game or event.
- We recommend reserving your seat 24 hours in advance of your scheduled trip.
- Reservations must be made a minimum of 4 hours prior to event time.
How?
It's easy to use with two (2) simple steps:
- Call Transit Windsor or 311* to reserve a seat.
- Provide your full name, gender, date of birth and passport number.
Note: Effective, June 1, 2009 all Canadians will require a valid passport for travelling by land to the U.S.
Why?
- The manifested list is provided to Customs & Border Protection (CBP) prior to departure for pre-authorization. Now you can clear U.S. Customs faster by providing your personal information in advance. You remain on the bus while a Customs officer boards for inspection. Anyone requiring secondary inspection will be asked to proceed to the inspection area, and upon clearance, will catch the next bus to the event.
Cost?
- There is no additional fee for reserving a seat on a manifested bus. Exact fare is $3.75 each way to the Joe. $4.00 each way to Comerica Park or Ford Field. Trip tickets may be purchased in advance at selected sales outlets.
Particulars:
Buses begin returning to Windsor immediately after, and up to a maximum of 30 minutes past the event conclusion (except Lions games: 60 minutes max).
Pre-manifesting does not preclude the need to carry/provide proof of citizenship when crossing the border. View list of acceptable identification – Border Crossing Requirements (Note changes effective June 1, 2009).
Tunnel buses are still available on regularly scheduled times and passengers need not reserve a seat or provide pre-authorization information. See our complete Transit schedule.
