Cape Destinations is pleased to announce that CAPEX (Cape and Providence Express Bus Service) will begin running direct daily bus service between Cape Cod and Providence on April 1st. "We receive calls daily asking if there is a cost-effective and efficient way to get to T.F. Green airport in Providence so we believe the market is out there." said Peggy Garrahan, owner of Cape Destinations. The initial service will include 5 daily round trips between the Cape and Providence’s Amtrak and TF Green Airport. CAPEX will originate in Harwich with stops at designated commuter lots then proceed with express service to Providence. We have worked closely with TF Green Airport and Amtrak to design a schedule around flight and train departures and arrivals” said Garrahan. "Our first bus will arrive at the airport at 5 a.m.” The return trip will include stops in the New Bedford and Fall River areas to pick up workers bound for Cape Cod employment. Cape Destinations has already received several calls from local chambers and businesses on the possibility of transporting employees to and from Cape Cod. “We are excited to work with local businesses and the community to make CAPEX a success” said Garrahan.
