Megabus, which provides transportation for customers in New York, Texas, California, and Canada, is teaming up with Salt Lake Express in Rexburg to provide routes throughout the Pacific Northwest, a section of the country it hasn't previously served.the partnership will allow them to expand service into 75 cities across Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming.
It will include daily trips to Boise, Helena, Montana, Salt Lake City and Reno, Nevada, according to a The Rexburg transportation company acquired Northwest Stage Lines last fall to expand its routes into Seattle, Spokane, Boise and the western side of the state. "One thing it does provide travelers from this area is the ability to buy Megabus tickets to travel back east," Salt Lake Express spokeswoman Lisa Young says. "The goal is to connect all of their east Coast lines with all of their lines across the U.S."And with many of their clients looking for alternatives to flying, Young says the partnership with Megabus is mutually beneficial.
