All ferry terminalsare within one-half mile of transit services. Local bus routes are available to allcommercial airports offering passenger carrier service. In this way, transit connects andintegrates all other forms of transportation on <strong>Cape</strong> <strong>Cod</strong>.While some bus transportation on <strong>Cape</strong> <strong>Cod</strong> operates on a regular and frequent basis,some does not. Interregional bus service operates on a regular and well publishedschedule. Several P&B and Peter Pan buses run daily to Boston and Providence, oftenevery hour. The Flex bus has also met much success, partly due to the regularity of itsschedule. However, other local bus services, such as the Hyannis-Falmouth line are notfrequent enough for many riders. Traffic on major roadways also delays many localbuses, such as the Barnstable Villager, making them less dependable. Offering morebuses in a more dependable manner will improve rider mobility and encourage morepeople to use transit services.Chapter 2.3: Bus <strong>Transportation</strong> <strong>Cape</strong> <strong>Cod</strong> <strong>Regional</strong> <strong>Transportation</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> | August 2011Page 160
