Little Rock [is] to start a casino shuttle bus that will transport patrons from the Arkansas State Capitol to the Southland Casino Hotel in West Memphis.

The plan is to make the travel to and from West Memphis more accessible and professional for the seniors looking to take the trip.

The bus, coined “grandma-approved”, will provide a 5-person business-class cabin experience to make them as comfortable as possible.

Each bus will have 21-inch reclining captain chairs, USB charging ports, cup holders, and complimentary bottled water.

Jonathan M. Toles, creator of BizBus said about the bus, “I don’t want my 70-year-old parents and their friends driving for a day trip to the casino, and so I started BizBus for retired professionals to safely and comfortably reach the fun places they want to visit like Southland Casino Hotel.”
