T3 Transit is a Canadian public transport company operating buses throughout the Greater Charlottetown area of Prince Edward Island, including the towns of Cornwall and Stratford.
History
Founded in 2005 as Charlottetown Transit, the 150th anniversary year of the city's incorporation. It is funded by the municipal and federal levels of government and provides service throughout the city's neighbourhoods. The province of Prince Edward Island does not provide transit funding toward the service. The last attempt at public transit was in the form of Charlottetown Urban Transit Systems Limited from late 1979 to 1981.
The name "Charlottetown Transit" was merely a marketing name and not a legally incorporated company. All buses are owned by the City of Charlottetown but are operated under contract by privately owned Coach Atlantic Group.
In February, 2012, Charlottetown Transit changed its name to T3 Transit. The new brand offers services to Charlottetown, Cornwall, and Stratford, as well as in Summerside.
Most buses are designed to have the appearance of a tram or streetcar and were constructed by Dupont Industries (Thomas MVP EF Champlain 1608 LF and HF), as well as MCI Classic buses). The trolley buses are smaller than conventional transit bus designs and must be able to navigate the narrower streets and intersections in the city's downtown core.
In 2018, T3 Transit ran a demonstration with an electric bus, an American made New Flyer Xcelsior CHARGE. The company is considering upgrading its fleet in the future to electric buses. If government funding goes through, the buses will be delivered 2020 or 2021.
