Shore Transit Wins Permit for Tolchester Route
Shore Transit Line, Inc. secured a permit to operate a motor bus service between Tolchester and McLeans Corner from the Public Service Commission last week. The commission will issue a conditional permit and order allowing Shores Line Bus to run to Tolchester with passengers originating at points not less than five miles north east or south of Chestertown. The ruling protects Vernon M. Harnett's long standing Tolchester Chestertown service while giving Shore Line access to passengers from routes beyond Chestertown and Talchester.
