Meet Debra! She hoped on the Middlesex County Connect to take a trip to @ArvaFlourMills where she enjoyed a wonderful lunch and a hike. She says that Middlesex Connect provides a wonderful service and she looks forward to enjoying other trips in the County https://t.co/XMVrfqNNe4

The best part of PC Connect? Many riders would argue that it’s the freedom to multitask - whether scrolling your feeds, working or learning, you can do it all WHILE getting to your destination! Others would argue that it’s the fact that they can travel for as low as $5/ride!! 🚌
