OurBus will pick up and drop off passengers at the following locations:

OurBus Prime launches intercity bus service from Columbia to New York City



NEW YORK --  After tasting success on popular commuter routes, OurBus, Inc., is determined to change the way people travel intercity with the launch of OurBus Prime.  The Prime services are set to bring comfort and convenience to travellers on North America’s busiest intercity bus route - NYC - D.C, with a stop at the Broken Land Park & Ride in Columbia, MD. OurBus will be starting its much-awaited Prime bus service from Monday, April 10th.
https://www.ourbus.com/

OurBus Prime will be the first intercity bus service to serve the Howard County area, offering daily departures to and from New York City, with no intermediate stops.
Axel Hellman, OurBus' transportation planner, states that OurBus Prime is filling a void in the intercity travel market, “Over the past few years intercity bus services near Washington, DC have exploded in popularity. There are buses that pick up in Bethesda, Arlington, Alexandria, and Silver Spring, but virtually nothing is available between the Beltway and Downtown Baltimore. It’s one of the largest areas in the Baltimore-Washington metro area that lacks an affordable intercity bus service - until now.”
A transportation technology startup with just 9 months in business, OurBus has already earned a reputation for its impeccable services. Presently, over 3,000 commuters have registered to ride the commuter bus service from their areas. The buses have been plying on commuter routes from Central New Jersey to New York City, and an intercity route from Northeast Pennsylvania to NYC. OurBus functions on proprietary algorithms that create nearest pick-up and drop-off stops for the customers, thus reducing the commute time and cost by almost 50%.  DC to New York bus tickets
Hellman says that "OurBus is making transportation more efficient than ever by connecting intercity and commuter routes together. This makes it possible for us to offer luxury buses to daily commuters and long-distance travelers at affordable prices."
He further added "In cities across the country, local buses take commuters from the suburbs into the city, then return empty.  Meanwhile, empty intercity buses drive into the central city each morning to pick up long distance travelers.  These inefficiencies create traffic and add to the cost of bus travel.  By linking commuter and intercity services, OurBus is making travel cheaper for riders, and creating more opportunities for our partners in the luxury coach industry."
The state-of-art OurBus coaches are equipped with amenities like reclining seats and on-board restrooms to provide utmost comfort for long distance travel. For those who like to stay connected with the world, the buses offer complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi and individual charging ports for the travellers’ devices.
OurBus founder Narinder Singh believes that the company’s cutting edge technology will make the travel experience hassle-free. He says “The app-based bus service not only allows users to book their tickets conveniently but also enables them to track their ride. The travellers can share their real-time ETA with their friends and family.” Singh also added that “OurBus is committed to the safety and security of its passengers, thus, user details and tracking information are encrypted”.
Despite the exceptional comfort that OurBus Prime offers, the tickets are at a competitive price. While one can catch an Amtrak Northeast Regional or Acela train to New York, fares can be expensive. A train ticket can cost anywhere from $80 to $200. OurBus Prime tickets start at $19, enabling students, tourists, and business travellers to travel with greater convenience at much lower cost. Columbia to New York City
However, what truly differentiates OurBus from its competition is their dedication towards providing a pleasant and timely journey for their commuters. To ensure that the safety of the passengers is never compromised, a 15-point maintenance check is carried out each day and no buses older than 3 years are kept in service.  
OurBus is increasingly gaining popularity among intercity travellers as a smarter way to travel. OurBus Prime offers the ideal fusion of modern technology and luxury at a competitive price.

OurBus Launches Direct Bus for NYC Commuters from Franklin Township

Franklin Township, NJ – On May 16th, OurBus, Inc. started a new express bus service between the New Jersey suburb and Midtown Manhattan.  OurBus is a technology platform that allows commuters to create their own demand-based bus routes that pick up near their homes and drop off close to their workplaces.

https://ourbus.com/
“Commuters will no longer have to stop at every intersection all the way down Route 27,” says OurBus co-founder Manmeet Virdi.  “After Kendall Park our service gets straight on the Turnpike and heads to New York.  At commuters’ request, we are offering a non-stop ride from Kendall Park to commuter hotspots in NYC.”

Virdi, a longtime commuter, was inspired to start the business in order to make life easier for his mother, whose commute has only become more difficult and time-consuming over the years.

Free parking for the bus is available at the Kendall Park Roller Skating Rink Park and Ride on RT 27.  The morning trip currently departs at 6:55 a.m., with a stop at Green Hill Manor at 7:00 a.m.  The return trip leaves from the last stop in Times Square at 6 p.m.  Exact departure times and pickup locations can be modified based on customer requests. Columbia Maryland to NYC

“OurBus is a point-to-point service.  Taking OurBus saves commuters up to an hour every day, allowing them to spend more time at home with their families,” said OurBus founder Narinder Singh. Singh comes from a transportation logistics and business background.

Commuters who live outside Kendall Park or who commute to other destinations or commute at other times can create a new route by signing up for OurBus.  “The faster commuters sign up for OurBus, the faster we will begin serving their communities,” said Singh, “we have already seen lots of interest from nearby towns such as North Brunswick, Monroe, and Edison.” New Brunswick to DC

“Once commuters create a route, we connect them with charter companies to provide a high-quality commute experience.  We ensure that  all the companies we work with have Department of Transportation numbers, FMCSA registration, proper insurance and authority to carry passengers.  The coaches we use have amenities such as Wi-Fi, charging stations, onboard restrooms, and reclining seats.”

Fares are almost half the cost of the other options available.  Plus, since our routes are direct, riders save even more money by not having to pay for parking permits and multiple transfers.” 

By working with charter companies with excess capacity, and using the buses for other routes such as airport shuttles or urban routes off-hours, OurBus is able to keep costs down for commuters.

The Franklin Township bus route is a pilot project for OurBus - a technology platform that will allow commuters, neighborhoods, and municipalities to create their own demand-based bus routes.  A proprietary algorithm creates routes that conveniently stop near commuters’ homes and places of work. The platform then works with charter coach companies to serve their needs. 

Interested Franklin Township commuters can sign up for OurBus and purchase tickets at www.OurBus.com.  For any inquiries, contact PR@OurBus.com
