The Arkansas State Athletics Department is teaming up with the Jonesboro Economic Transit System (J.E.T.S.) to provide the transportation.
The JETS buses are available for those fans wishing to park at the City of Jonesboro parking lot, which is located at the intersection of Cate Avenue and Church Street across from the old Mercentile Bank/Union Planters Bank building.
Fares are $1.25 each way for adults, 90 cents one way for A-State students with a valid student ID and 60 cents for passengers 65 or older.
A 6 p.m. opening kickoff is scheduled for Saturday's matchup against Western Kentucky in what represents the Sun Belt Conference (SBC) opener for both teams.
The JETS buses will begin loading at these approximate times: 2:55, 3:25, 3:55, 4:25, 4:55 and 5:25. The buses will unload fans at the Northwest corner of Liberty Bank Stadium near gate 11. Buses will begin loading passengers to return to the parking lot 10 minutes after the end of the game and leave about 20 minutes after the game is over. Busses will load in the LibertyBank Stadium parking lot near gate 11.
