Transit Services

The increase in traffic in our area impedes the movement of people and goods in our city. The pollution created by traffic destroys the air we breathe. The City of Alexandria is working to reduce the congestion generated by single occupancy vehicles, improve mobility throughout the city and protect our environment. To accomplish this, the City's Transit Services Division, located in room 3640 in City Hall, coordinates Metrobus and Metrorail service, the Alexandria DASH bus service, DOT paratransit for the mobility impaired, ridesharing to promote the formation of car and vanpools, the Virginia Railway Express commuter rail, bus stop amenities, and other programs designed to increase the use of alternatives to the single occupant vehicle and to protect the environment.

What's New?

DASH Study to Identify Recommendations for Improvements
The City, in partnership with Alexandria Transit Company (ATC), recently began a Comprehensive Operations Analysis (COA) of the DASH transit system to identify service improvements and route expansion that will increase connectivity and accessibility and improve the quality, efficiency, and effectiveness of the DASH fixed route transit system.
