Students attending the Owen Sound campus of Georgian College can take some free rides this winter.
Grey County announced that students attending the Owen Sound campus can access free regional transportation through the Grey Transit Route (GTR) which operates out of Grey County. Grey Transit Route provides a safe, dependable, affordable transportation option for travelling between different communities in the Grey and Bruce areas. The county will give students a code they can use at the checkout when they go online to schedule their free ride. Transit is booked through the GTR app or the website to ensure there's enough seating available.
The codes will be issued during orientation at the start of the winter semester and will be usable until April 30, 2023.
“We’re very grateful to Grey County for this service as it reduces the financial burden for both international and domestic students,” said Madison Lindsay, President, Owen Sound Georgian College Students’ Association. “It also supports our ability to get to part-time jobs, placements and allows us to see more of the surrounding community, connect with family and friends in the GTA and have an enriched student experience."
