The Oklahoma City Streetcar map is displayed at a boarding platform near a busy street on March 8, 2019, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Since parking is a challenge learning how to get around downtown using the new OKC streetcar system is something Airmen from Tinker Air Force Base’s First Term Airmen Center are taught during a tour brought about by partnering with the OKC Convention and Visitors Bureau. The downtown tour has quickly become a welcome capstone to the FTAC curriculum and, over time, should help integrate the military members with the community faster and smoother.
