MEXICAN BUS COMPANY ANNOUNCES SCHEDULE LEAVING BELIZE
There is now a direct bus ride from Belize City to Merida and Cancun, and as of last Friday, the rides are daily. The service is being provided by the bus company called ADO Group from Mexico. Today representatives of the bus company held a press conference detailing the routes and the regulations of the new transport service.
One bus is on schedule to leave from the bus terminal in Belize City to Merida at eight every night, arriving at its final destination at six fifteen the following morning. The second bus to Cancun leaves the bus terminal in Belize City at eight fifteen each night arriving at Cancun at seven the following morning. The bus runs will not be affecting the services provided by local transport providers.
People can board the busses from Belize City, Orange Walk and Corozal only if their final destinations are Merida or Cancun in Mexico. Anyone wishing to travel within Belize will not be able to take the bus. The ADO bus company has designated five buses and a total of ten experienced drivers to make the runs. The buses are first class grade, air conditioned with forty-four seats and a toilet.
The company signed a ninety day contract with the transport department last week and made the first run last Friday. So far runs have transported between sixteen to twenty passengers and the company expects the numbers to go up eventually. One way tickets from Belize to Cancun are for seventy-nine dollars; to Playa Del Carmen, sixty three dollars; Merida, seventy nine dollars; and Tulum, fifty-five dollars. The prices are in Belize dollars. Tickets can be bought directly from one of the company’s personnel at the bus terminal in Belize City.
