Like many other transit systems in NorthAmerica, the region had a slow-as-molasses bus system with very infrequent runs. Not surprisingly usage was extremely low. In 2005 GRT decided to join modern transportation systems and provide a fast and frequent bus route which was an immediate success. There are now five routes (with a sixth one in the works) which see more ridership on a weekend than most of the previous routes would see on a weekday during rush hour.
