Ohiopyle State Park Shuttlebus Services

2026-11-03

The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources ( Department ), Ohiopyle State Park in Fayette County , Pennsylvania , requires the services of a shuttlebus operator ( Operator ) to safely transport whitewater boaters from the Bruner Run Take - out Area to the parking lot at Old Mitchell Place . The Youghiogheny River that flows through the State Park is a popular whitewater boating destination and attracts many whitewater boaters each year . Bruner Run Road , which provides accessto a take - out location on the river , is narrow and single lane with infrequent pull - offs . Due to these physical constraints , the Department has determined that it is critical to the safety of the public and in the best interests of the Commonwealth , the natural resources , and the boating public to control the flow of traffic and to limit the number of vehicles using the access road . Recent public whitewater boating trends at Ohiopyle continue a need for shuttle bus services on weekends and holidays , when visitation is at its highest . The past few seasons have seen manageable visitation on weekdays and less need for shuttle bus services during these times . Through this contract , we intend to continue the weekend shuttle busservices with the option to institute weekdays if demand existsthrough increased visitation .
