Select Board explores options to bring Green Mountain Express or alternative service to Stamford

The Stamford Select Board discussed efforts to recruit regional transit service to the town and reported mixed responses from carriers contacted.

A board member said Movers indicated willingness to discuss limited pickups for medical trips, while Green Mountain Express had not yet provided a firm commitment; the conversation highlighted routing and funding limitations for cross‑state service. "If you need it for doctors, this is that kind of stuff," a board member said, describing one use case for a limited pickup service. Members asked staff to contact bus lines for clarification and to explore whether funding mechanisms permit regular service into Massachusetts.

The board did not make a formal commitment to a transit contract but agreed to continue outreach and provide updates at future meetings.
