By Alan Snel of LVSportsBiz.com

After traffic complaints following the Garth Brooks concert at Allegiant Stadium July 10, you would think this can only help — RTC is offering five different express bus routes from suburban spots for all scheduled Las Vegas Raiders home games this season.

The RTC express service starts rolling for the Raiders’ first preseason game on Aug. 14, when Las Vegas hosts the Seattle Seahawks.

The game day cost is $2 per person each way, $4 roundtrip.  Payment may be made in cash with exact change on the bus, or passes may be purchased in advance on the rideRTC app.

Here are your five locations from which Game Day Express service will operate:

  • Route 605 – Summerlin Game Day Express: Red Rock Casino Resort Spa, 11011 W. Charleston Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89135
  • Route 606 – Green Valley Game Day Express: Green Valley Ranch Resort Casino & Spa, 2300 Paseo Verde Parkway, Henderson 89052
  • Route 607 – Centennial Hills Game Day Express: Santa Fe Station Hotel & Casino, 4949 N. Rancho Dr., Las Vegas, NV 89130

  • Route 612 – West Henderson Game Day Express: M Resort Spa Casino, 12300 Las Vegas Blvd. South, Henderson 89044

Game Day Express service will vary according to game time. The first bus departures are planned for 30 minutes prior to the time gates open, which is about three hours before kick-off.

The bus service will run every 30 minutes from each site. After games, buses for each route will depart approximately 20 to 30 minutes after game ends.

For the Aug. 14 preseason game which starts at 6PM and has gates opening at 3PM, the Game Day Express service begins at 2:30PM. and runs every 30 minutes with the last bus departing for Allegiant Stadium at 5 p.m.

For other home games that begin at 1:05 p.m. or 1:25 p.m., Game Day Express service will begin at 9:30 a.m. and run every 30 minutes with the last bus departing at noon.
