The Transit Project Coordinator for Perth County Connect Transit says they were one of several transit organizations that received a Community Transportation Grant from the Ministry of Transportation.
Maggie Kerr says they launched P C Connect in 2018.
“We actually all partnered together and created the Southwest Community Transportation Association, and this Association has really worked together and eventually connected all of our transportation services so that we can really connect the southwest and provide reliable transportation from one end to the other,” she said.
“We actually provide stops in St. Marys and Stratford. So you can get on the GO Train from there. We‘re also working closely with GO and Via to really advocate for more frequencies so that it can even be more convenient to get from our rural communities to some of the bigger urban centres,” Kerr added.
Kerr says more transportation systems are being created throughout the province, giving people better opportunities to travel between communities.
