SunRail will soon give commuters more travel options in the evenings. 

The commuter rail is extending its weekday service with two trains running later at night, according to a news release from the Florida Department of Transportation

What we know:

The new schedule will begin Dec. 1 and include two late-night trips—one northbound to DeLand and one southbound to Poinciana. 

According to the schedule on the SunRail website, the new northbound train would make its last departure from Poinciana at 8:45 p.m. and arrive in DeLand by 10:26 p.m. The last southbound train for the evening would leave DeLand at 9:55 p.m. and arrive in Poinciana by 11:38 p.m.

SunRail said the additional routes will provide commuters with more options for traveling from work or enjoying entertainment and community events around the area. 

In September, SunRail announced a plan to expand its weekday service. The proposal had to be approved by the Central Florida Commuter Rail Commission.
