What’s new for County Transit in 2025

January 10, 2025

County Transit has introduced some changes and enhancements to its services, new for 2025.

Introducing the new Rides on Demand app:

County Transit has launched Rides on Demand, a new app that will make it easier for residents to access on-demand transit service within the County.

The Rides on Demand app connects riders with available seats on specialized buses, (buses serving registered clients with disabilities or 55+).

The app can be downloaded directly onto your device: click here for Android; click here for Apple.

Rides can be arranged through the app up to three days in advance or up to one hour before travel, between Monday – Friday from 6:15 am – 6 pm.

This service is available at a fare of $5.00 per ride to County residents who do not hold a County Transit pass. County Transit pass holders do not need to pay the fare.

Click here for a list of Rides on Demand’s frequently asked questions.

Riders who do not wish to use the Rides on Demand app can still book seats in advance by contacting Quinte Transit at info@quintetransit.ca or at 613-392-9420 or toll-free at 1-855-283-9640.

County Transit fare reductions:

County Transit is excited to announce new fare reductions for its fixed-route bus service that are now in effect.

The adult fare for trips to or from Belleville has been reduced to $10 from $11, enhancing affordability and simplifying payment for cash riders.

Children aged 13 and under now travel free, a reduction from the previous $4 Belleville fare, making transit more accessible for families.

Other fares remain unchanged. For details and pass options, click here.

Since June 2024 fixed-route ridership has doubled compared to the previous year, thanks to service improvements. With these new changes for 2025, the municipality aims to make it even easier for County residents to reach their destinations.

For more information on County Transit, please visit the County’s website.
