I find it interesting that the Jitney STRONGLY encourages using public transportation such as the S92 bus route.
Not many people will be taking a public bus in the Hamptons…so being realistic it is encouraged that either you have someone drop you off in Sag Harbor or use the parking provided at Pierson HS parking lot on Jermain Avenue
Sag Harbor – Daily parking for Peconic Jitney passengers is provided in the Sag Harbor School parking lot on Jermain Ave., adjacent to the High School gym. Overflow parking spaces will be available in the Division Street lot. The shuttle travels from the Pierson Jermain Ave. lot to RT. 114 to Bay St. and returns the same way. NOTE – THERE IS NO PARKING ON LONG WHARF OR MAIN ST!
