New ground transportation option in Minneapolis

2005-03-02 09:29:05

The good news:
Last December Minneapolis started a Light Rail Service between
downtown and Mall of America with a stop at the airport.
The ride costs $1.25 each way and the trains seem to be running
every 10 minutes during the weekend and more frequently during the week.

The bad news:
The closest stop (at 5'th St. and Nicollet Mall) is about 5 blocks
from the Hilton Towers hotel.

See their web site at: http://www.metrocouncil.org/transportation/lrt/lrt.htm
For reference here is a map of the area with hotels displayed:

It is possible to use the skyway from this station to the hotel,
but you may want a map of the skyway system:
