Like most national parks and monuments in the West, Bryce Canyon National Park has been
experiencing record visitation in recent years. The free shuttle service is provided by the park to
provide visitors an easy way to see the park, without the challenges associated with the limited
parking.
“Sometimes visitors spend more time hunting for parking than they do at the overlooks,” said
Brian Cambria, of Red Canyon Transit. “On some days, parking can fill up well before noon. We
encourage everyone to park at the shuttle station and ride the free bus. Our professional, friendly,
experienced drivers help visitors feel welcome and have more time to do the things they come
for.”
In 2016, Red Canyon Transit operated over 10,000 hours of bus service, and carried 627,000
passengers on 140,000 accident-free miles.
Red Canyon Transit, LLC, is a new Utah company made up of old timers from the Utah
passenger transportation industry. Combined, partners Steve Lewis, Ron Romer and Brian
Cambria have over 100 years of passenger transportation experience. They have brought a fleet
of eight new transit buses to the shuttle, operating with the cleanest diesel engines available
today. Red Canyon Transit staff – the best in the west – is made up of many veterans of the
Bryce Canyon Shuttle, some with experience going back to 2000, the first year of the shuttle.
