An event was held this morning at Amazon in Lancaster to announce the partnership with the NFTA to provide bus service to their facility. This partnership, requested by many in our community through feedback both companies received, provides service to the facility from Thruway Mall on the 46 Lancaster route. Passengers can transfer from the 4 Broadway, 6 Sycamore, 22 Porter-Best, and 26 Delavan at the Thruway Mall transfer center. Service is provided seven days a week. On weekdays, six trips are serving the facility, with five trips serving the facility on the weekends.

“We are excited to be able to provide this enhanced service to our riders,” said Kim Minkel, executive director, NFTA. “NFTA-Metro is working very hard at connecting people to jobs. We know how important this is in the growth and vitality of our community.”

Amazon has designated a specific stop location with its own shelter at its facility. The company is enrolling its employees in NFTA-Metro’s Corporate Pass Program, purchasing at least 25 monthly passes going forward.
