(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Integration of PRESTO hardware on Argo X1 electric buses and real-time GO Transit feeds prepares Smart RoutingTM system for scale through Ontario municipalities

TORONTO, Sept. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Argo Corporation (TSXV:ARGH) (OTCQX:ARGHF) (" Argo " or the " Company "), a leader in next-generation transit solutions, today announced that, in preparation for its public launch in Brampton in the coming weeks, it has successfully completed the integration of PRESTO fare-collection hardware on its Argo X1 electric buses under an agreement with Metrolinx. The Company has also completed a software integration that will give riders real-time GO Transit departure information once rolled out in the Argo app.

PRESTO Fare Integration

To facilitate the integration of PRESTO fare-collection hardware with its Smart RoutingTM system, Argo has entered into an agreement with Metrolinx, an agency of the Government of Ontario, that has enabled PRESTO fare-collection devices owned by Brampton Transit to be installed and operated on Argo X1 electric buses. This operating agreement enables fare integration for transfers to and from Brampton Transit and GO Transit under Ontario's One Fare Program .

GO Transit Feed Integration

Argo's Smart RoutingTM system picks riders up near their door in fully electric Argo X1 buses, augmenting existing transit networks with on-demand service. The system has already facilitated thousands of connections to Bradford GO Station in the Town of Bradford West Gwillimbury. To further enhance ease of transfers to existing GO Transit lines, the Company has completed a software integration with real-time GO Transit feeds. In the coming weeks, riders will be able to view live GO Transit departure times in the Argo app, with anticipated Argo arrival times for easier transfers.

"Our integration with Ontario's PRESTO fare system and live GO Transit feeds reinforces our commitment to establishing Ontario as the global standard for modern transit systems," said Praveen Arichandran, CEO and co-founder of Argo. "Together with provincial and municipal partners, we are making it easier for Ontarians to take public transit and for Ontario municipalities to enhance their transit systems with on-demand service."
