FlixBus, a long-distance bus travelling company, is launching a new route between London and Niagara Falls, starting June 9.

The route will be in operation from Thursday to Monday until Sept. 28, allowing for day trips and weekend getaways. The line is direct, with no transfer required.

Karina Frayter, head of communications for Flix North America, said the new line combats the hassle and high cost of driving for people in Southwestern Ontario.

“As more Canadians opt to stay local this summer, we’re focused on creating better regional connections to iconic destinations like Niagara Falls,” said Frayter.

• London (Western University): 1999 University Dr., London, ON N6A 2L9
• London (Downtown): Waterloo Street at King Street, London, ON N6B 1R8
• Ingersoll: 10 Samnah Crescent, Ingersoll, ON N5C 3J7
• Woodstock: 645-631 Near Dundas and Young St., Woodstock, ON N4S 1E3
