Plymouth & Brockton Street Railway Company announced today that, effective Saturday, August 14th, the company will begin daily bus service from Woods Hole and Falmouth Station to South Station and Logan Airport in Boston, as well as service from Woods Hole and Falmouth Station to T.F. Green Airport (Rhode Island TF Green International Airport).
John Cogliano, president of Plymouth & Brockton, said today that Plymouth & Brockton has secured licensing agreements from the Steamship Authority and the Falmouth EDIC which enables P&B buses to pick up and drop off passengers at the Woods Hole Ferry Terminal and the Falmouth Station. He said that the addition of the new bus service between Woods Hole and Falmouth Station to Logan Airport and T.F. Green will provide reliable transportations options that are cost effective for the public.
Cogliano said, “P&B bus service will include stops in Woods Hole, Falmouth Station, and Sagamore. From there, the bus will head directly to Boston South Station then Logan International Airport. In addition, we will provide daily bus service from Woods Hole to T.F. Green via New Bedford and Fall River.”
He continued, “We are very pleased to add these routes to our service. We believe there is a demand for the service and we are looking forward to providing this transportation option for residents of Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, and the Cape.”
Cogliano, who held the top state transportation positions including Commissioner of the Massachusetts Highway Department, Massachusetts Secretary of Transportation, Chairman of the MBTA and the Chairman and CEO of the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority, said, “This new daily bus service from Woods Hole and Falmouth to Logan and TF Green Airports alongside our hourly bus service from Hyannis through the South Shore to Logan Airport provides more transportation options to the public than any other bus company serving Cape Cod. P&B provides the most daily bus service between Cape Cod and Boston and Logan Airport.”
“Traveling on a Plymouth and Brockton bus to Boston, Logan Airport, TF Green Airport, and Cape Cod is a safer, greener, and more cost effective way to travel to your destination. Every P&B bus can take up to 55 cars off the road which reduces local traffic congestion, reduces overall gas consumption, and truly benefits the environment,” Cogliano said.
Presently, P&B’s Airport Express provides a new bus service from Hyannis, MA, with stops in Barnstable, Sagamore, New Bedford and Fall River, and the final destination at T.F. Green Airport in Warwick, RI. The route runs regular round trips every day providing cost effective and faster service to the airport. Also, P&B has a long established bus route from Hyannis to Boston and Logan Airport which makes stops on the Cape and the South Shore.

About Plymouth & Brockton Street Railway Company
Plymouth & Brockton Street Railway Company was purchased in 2019 by businessmen Win Sargent, John Cogliano and Paul Fuerst. The former owners, the Anzuoni family of Plymouth had purchased Plymouth & Brockton Street Railway Company in 1948; two decades after P&B had converted from rail to bus transportation. Over the years, the company grew to provide expanded transportation service to and from Cape Cod and across the South Shore, express service to Logan Airport.
Two additional transportation companies –Brush Hill Transportation Company of Randolph, and McGinn Bus Company of Lynn – were also purchased by Sargent, Cogliano, and Fuerst. The company traces its roots to 1888, when it was first named The Plymouth & Kingston Street Railway. In 1928 the electric trolleys ceased operation and were replaced by Mack buses. Today, Plymouth & Brockton operates an extensive commuter service to Boston, including frequent trips to and from Logan Airport, as well as transportation service from Plymouth to the Cape and to Boston, as well as a newly-established route between Hyannis, MA and Rhode Island’s T.F. Green Airport. Plymouth & Brockton has recently added new, state-of-the-art motorcoaches to its fleet. The company headquarters are located at 8 Industrial Park Road, Plymouth, MA. Motorcoaches are also available for charter. For additional information or media inquiries, please contact Jim Farrell at 617-429-7990, or Nicole Joy Hales at 781-871-7280.
