Iqaluit Public Transit

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Iqaluit Public Transit system operated from 2002 to 2005 to provide public transportation in Iqaluit, Nunavut, Canada. Mounting costs and low ridership forced city council to cancel the service in late 2004 and it ceased operations January 2005.[1]

[edit] History

Contract for the first public transit system was given to Bob Hanson. The desire was to ease congestion on the city's roads and provide a cheaper alternative to taxi and cars.
