Join us for the ride!
The Antigonish Community Transit Society is beginning a pilot project transit service that will cover the town and county of Antigonish. This service is the result of a lot of volunteer hours and community support, and we are so excited to finally be putting wheels on the road to help everyone in the town and county access services and cover distances easily, conveniently and economically. This 7 month pilot project is designed to determine the need for public transit in Antigonish by evaluating its usage. Routes serviced and vehicle capacities will be determined according to rider demand and community input!
