Megabus adds western routes, partners with Salt Lake Express

Utah-based shuttle service Salt Lake Express has entered a partnership with Megabus, a major bus company based in Elizabeth, New Jersey. In addition to Salt Lake Express routes along the northern I-15 corridor, Megabus will now off routes across Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming, including daily trips to Boise, Idaho; Helena, Montana; and Reno, Nevada.

“We are thrilled about this opportunity to offer these new routes to Megabus customers,” said Jacob Price, owner of Salt Lake Express. “Our route map is extensive, and it’s all thanks to the many loyal communities and riders that we have. We currently run daily scheduled service throughout Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Utah and Nevada. We look forward to offering this service to our customers — and now Megabus customers — for many years to come. We are confident that our high level of service will serve this new customer base well.”

“We are delighted with this opportunity to team up with Salt Lake Express to offer new service to our customers,” said Colin Emberson, vice president, commercial for Megabus.  “The partnership will allow us to expand throughout the Northwest and the addition of these 75 cities will bring our total network to more than 500 cities served in North America.”Salt Lake Express is a family owned business that opened in the 1993, offering both scheduled and charter services.
