Cities with direct Megabus service to the Providence Ferry landing, located at 25 India St., include Dartmouth, New Bedford, and Fall River. The ferry will offers four daily trips to Newport Sunday through Thursday, and five trips on Fridays and Saturdays between June 16 and Oct. 1.
The New Bedford Seastreak stop will be located at 49 State Pier.
