The wheels on the bus will go round and round with three new routes to the Simcoe County LINX public transit system being added Tuesday.
Riders can go from Wasaga Beach to Barrie with stops in Clearview and Essa, the other route is Orillia to Barrie with stops in Oro-Medonte.
The county will also assume an established route between Collingwood and Wasaga Beach.
Fares are based on distance travelled and are between $2 and $6.
Service will be weekdays, except Collingwood to Wasaga Beach, which will run on the current 7-day schedule including most stat holidays.
LINX began last August with a route between Pentanguishene and Barrie.
Ridership on that run is 25 per cent above projections on a monthly basis.
“We are getting seniors to hospital, people who don't have cars to work, and students to school.” said David Parks, Director of Planning, Economic Development and Transit.
Another two routes will be added in August 2020 including Alliston to Bradford, Midland to Orillia.
