A new system called Parcobus has been unveiled by the Saint John Transit and Parking Commissions.


It encourages people to park and take the bus or car-pool and includes four parking lots.
They are at Golden Grove Road on Hillcrest Road, the Latimore Lake Community Center, the Lorneville Parking lot on Stinson Drive and the Loch Lomond Parking lot near St. Joseph's Church.


It's hoped the Parcobus system will help reduce CO2 emissions by 167 tonnes every year.


Funding for the project comes from the Province and totals $287,000.
