Newport Daily News Editor's note: With the unofficial start of summer on the horizon, The Daily News is examining issues related to Aquidneck Island's beaches. This is the third in a four-part series to get you ready for the season. The Rhode Island Public Transit Authority plans to run a beach shuttle from the North End of the city to Easton’s Beach in Newport and Sachuest Beach in Middletown on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays between June 19 to Aug. 22. While the service is being welcomed by Newport officials, the same cannot be said of the reception it has received from some members of the Middletown Town Council.
