City adds airport stop to TransCab services

A City of Greater Sudbury pilot project will see the addition of an airport stop for its TransCab route currently servicing the Garson/Falconbridge/Skead area.

Those wishing to use the TransCab service to the airport must tell the bus driver on the 303 route that you require a TransCab transfer to the airport, said the city in a press release. The driver will make arrangements to have a TransCab vehicle at the North Star Confectionary on Skead Road.

Anyone flying in to Greater Sudbury is asked to call to book a TransCab pickup at the airport at least 90 minutes in advance. Travellers may pre-book a TransCab pickup well in advance; however, 90 minutes is the minimum required advanced notice.

Bookings may be done by calling 705-522-1380 or 705-522-1112.

The pilot project begins Sept. 17 and will continue to operate until the end of the year when it will be assessed by staff to determine the outcome of this project and its future.
