MISSION STATEMENT
To provide safe, clean, reliable and affordable local public transportation for all.
“I started riding Zoom in 2008 when gas prices were nearing $5 per gallon. Over a decade later I am still a regular passenger. The drivers (Terry and Sam) are wonderful. My fellow passengers are friends. It is so relaxing to read or visit with friends rather than fight rush hour traffic.

“Safe, reliable and affordable transportation!

“I have a dear friend named Barbara who for years has traveled every day from Old Orchard Beach to the Scarborough Veteran’s Home to visit with her husband. It hasn’t gone unnoticed by Shuttlebus employees that Barbara would have to not only walk down to the home after being dropped off but would also have to walk out from the home and cross the highway in order to catch the bus home. The Shuttlebus now brings Barbara to the home and on the trip back returns to the home to pick her up. Shuttlebus is not just a ride it is a company with a heart.” – Beverly Russell
