The Towns of Rothesay and Quispamsis are on the same page when it comes to public transit. Councillors in Rothesay voted to explore the idea of setting up one maybe two new shelters to service a run to the new Q-Plex facility.
Mayor Bill Bishop tells CHSJ News, this idea is the brainchild of Quispamsis. The belief is with more people on the route, it’s hoped the $60,000 cost incurred every year by Quispamsis can be reduced.
Under the proposal, Rothesay would build two new bus stops with the hope that the people riding the forty foot limo will reduce the cost of the run.
Rothesay says it will build the pads for the stops but would like Saint John Transit to provide the shelters.
