YEAR-ROUND BUSES OFFER NEW WAYS TO SAVE

Improved commuter service between Ellsworth and Bar Harbor eliminates more than one million vehicle miles a year from local roadways. It means cash savings for area workers, new job opportunities for people without cars, less congestion, and a reduction in greenhouse gases linked to global climate change.

     Downeast Transportation provides popular year-round shopping trips to Ellsworth and Bangor, and in-town shuttle service for Bucksport, Ellsworth, and Bar Harbor. Downeast Transportation also operates the Island Explorer serving Acadia National Park and neighborhing towns from June 23 through Columbus Day.
