💬Use your voice to help shape transportation in our region's rural areas!

Residents, businesses, and community stakeholders are encouraged to participate in the Rural Roanoke Valley Transportation Plan.

✅Share your feedback at https://engage.rvarc.org/rlrtp

This plan will guide transportation priorities through 2050 for Alleghany, Botetourt, Craig, Roanoke, and Franklin Counties, the City of Covington, and the Towns of Clifton Forge, Fincastle, New Castle, and Rocky Mount.

Your feedback is crucial for identifying transportation needs, such as road conditions, safety, and connectivity. Public input will help develop strategies to enhance safety, maintain infrastructure, and improve access to jobs, schools, and healthcare.

Whether you drive, walk, bike, ride transit, or rely on community transportation, your perspective is important! 🚗🚚🚌🚴‍♀️🚶🏼‍♂️

🚍 The best way to learn how to navigate the bus system is to Try Transit Together! ✨

We had a wonderful Try Transit outing with the staff from the Roanoke Department of Social Services Self-Sufficiency program. We traveled on Valley Metro - Roanoke routes 21/22, starting from their location on Williamson Rd to the Third St Transit Center and back.

🙌🏽Gaining hands-on experience in planning routes and riding the bus equips staff members with the knowledge and confidence they need to assist clients seeking transportation. The Self-Sufficiency program offers vital services such as job readiness and placement assistance, work experience opportunities, and job skills training.

Empowering individuals through education is a crucial first step in helping people reach their destinations— whether for work, school, or essential errands. RIDE Solutions takes pride in delivering valuable education on transportation options through community partnerships.

Whether you represent an employee group or an organization that supports individuals needing transportation, RIDE Solutions can create a customized bus trip tailored to your needs.
