The Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT) has announced that its new Virginia Trip Planner is available for use. The online trip planning tool incorporates travel information for both traditional bus service on set routes and flexible mobility options that do not follow an assigned road or schedule. Through the integration of more comprehensive menu of travel options in the Trip Planner, DRPT aims to improve the mobility of all Virginians, no matter where they live.
Using the online map-based tool, users can plan trips with bus, rail, bikeshare, carpools, vanpools, and walking anywhere around the Commonwealth. The Trip Planner is available on DRPT’s ConnectingVA website at connectingva.drpt.virginia.gov, which provides information about public transportation services, where to download the ConnectingVA trip planner and rewards mobile app, and how to talk to a local mobility manager or commuter assistance program staff across the Commonwealth.
