The 9 Town Transit has begun providing direct service between Old Saybrook and New London with its new Southeast Shuttle. This service replaces the Niantic route that ended in Niantic.

The Southeast Shuttle runs from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday between the Old Saybrook Train Station and the New London Transportation Center in downtown New London and includes various stops in Old Lyme.

A trip costs $1.25 and takes 45 minutes.

Riders will also be able to connect for free to the Southeast Area Transit (SEAT) system at the New London Transportation Center for service throughout New London, Norwich, and other area towns.
