Here We Grow Again!

We are pleased to announce that Hammond Transportation has reached an agreement to purchase the bus operations of Getaway Coach Lines! Effective Saturday February 15 we will take over the charter operations of Getaway Coach Lines; and on March 15 we will take over the line run portion of the business.

This expansion will see us purchase six vehicles and add two new routes operating Barrie—Orillia—Casino Rama and Penetang/Midland—Barrie.

“We are very excited by the opportunities that this expansion will provide in Simcoe County” said Greg Hammond.

We welcome the Getaway Coach drivers to the Hammond Transportation family.
