MEDICINE HAT, AB – The city’s on-demand transit service is expanding to Sunday service next month.

MHTnow will begin running on Sundays in the northeast and northwest areas of the city on May 9. It will run from 8:15 a.m. to 7:15 p.m., replacing current routes 10 and 11.

Available pick-up and drop-off locations have been predetermined and will allow riders to travel within the northeast and northwest neighbourhoods and to the downtown terminal.

“The community has really embraced the on-demand option and we’re excited to be able to expand it once again,” said Gordon Dykstra, acting transit manager with the City of Medicine Hat. “We have heard very positive feedback from our evening riders and are confident that our Sunday riders will feel the same.”

Riders are encouraged to download the MHTnow app, available in the App Store and on Google Play.
