billybob 20128 Report post Posted August 10, 2012 FYI for anyone who cares. Scotia Shuttle Service travels between Halifax and Saint John, Moncton and Fredericton. It's only once a day but it's an option to consider. Earlier this year I traveled from Saint John to Fredericton, $20, can't beat that. The guy even went out of his way to drop me off exactly where I wanted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastion Cabot 180 Report post Posted September 9, 2012 Hi,does anyone have any idea if there are any viable alternatives in the works to replace Acadian bus lines ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sam13 536 Report post Posted September 10, 2012 It appears so. There is a company from PEI who has applied to the routes. It is not known yet whether they will apply to take all routes or only the most profitable ones.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
