Schaumburg's Woodfield Trolley Expands Service for the Holidays

The Village of Schaumburg's Woodfield Trolley will expand its service to run daily beginning Friday, November 24 through Monday, January 1.

Additional trolleys will also be in service during the holidays which will reduce wait times in between trolleys to approximately every 15-20 minutes, making this transportation mode more convenient for the public.

The village's trolleys are brand new and were introduced this past July to replace the previous trolleys that were 17 years old. The new trolleys retain the charm of historic trolleys while adding attractive modern amenities, like Wi-Fi, low-floor ramps for easier accessibility, full security camera systems, and modern GPS and Intelligent Bus System (IBS) technology.

The Woodfield Trolley is free and provides front door service to various stops in the village including Woodfield Mall, Streets of Woodfield, Woodfield Village Green, IKEA and the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center Hotel.

Service hours are as follows:

Monday - Friday Noon - 9 p.m. (running every 20 minutes)

Saturdays 10 a.m. - 9 p.m. (running every 15-20 minutes)

Sundays 11 a.m. - 6 p.m. (running every 20 minutes)

Weather and traffic conditions can impact trolley operations at various times of the day throughout the busy holiday season. Visit the village's website at www.schaumburg.com, call the Trolley Hotline at (847) 923-3880, or dial 311 in the village for updated service information. No trolley service will be provided on Thanksgiving or Christmas Day.

The trolley reverts back to its regular weekend service schedule after New Year's Day.
