Free shuttle service launches on North Fork

The North Fork Link, a hop-on, hop-off shuttle service launched Saturday by The North Fork Promotion Council, runs through Aug. 25 and will take riders to and from restaurants, vineyards and other local tourist attractions across Riverhead and Greenport every Saturday for the next seven weeks. Officials hope the free service will help cut growing traffic and help residents and tourists enjoy weekends in the area.
