Peak bloom for the cherry blossoms is expected to be Monday, April 1.
As experienced commuters know, OmniRide Express buses experience delays in the afternoons and evenings each year during cherry blossom season because of increased vehicle and pedestrian traffic. We kindly ask for your patience today and over the next week while our bus operators do their best to provide you with a safe commute.
If you’d like to see the cherry blossoms this Saturday but don’t want to add another vehicle to the roadway, hop on our Prince William Metro Express bus which connects eastern Prince William County with the Franconia-Springfield Metro Station!
The one-way bus fare is $3.45 with a SmarTrip card or $4.25 cash. Saturday buses pick up passengers at Potomac Mills Mall and the OmniRide Transit Center, where there is plenty of free parking! Check out the timetables and map to find the trip that works best for you.
