Major fall festivals and transportation strain ahead

Endless Summer Cruisin runs September 24–27, followed by Oceans Calling September 25–27, Country Calling October 2–3, and Sunfest/Wine on the Beach October 22–25. Reduced bus-driver staffing, crowded service, and reliance on roughly 20 promoter-supplied buses could complicate travel as festival crowds increase; residents should plan extra time and expect traffic and parking pressure.
