Aina de Lapparent Alvarez reports in The Berkshire Eagle that the TriTown Connector public transit service has been running between Great Barrington, Stockbridge, and Egremont since May 1. Anne Fribourg, of Egremont, said, “It’s wonderful.... I use it a lot because I don’t have a car at the moment. I hope they expand to Lenox and Sheffield, which I frequently go to.” The service runs from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. weekdays and 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekends, charging residents $2 to travel within a town and $3.50 to travel between them, with anyone over 60 getting reduced fares. Tate Coleman, the program director at the TriTown Connector, said, “The goal of this service isn’t really to maximize efficiency (riders per hour) relative to other fixed-route alternatives, but to provide a greater quality of service to our residents, especially seniors and individuals with disabilities.” Read more about this story in The Berkshire Eagle.
