A 26-year-old motorcyclist from Woodbridge was killed in a crash on Route 1.
Some PRTC bus routes and timetables have been adjusted starting today, December 1, as the Fall Service Change takes effect. The Potomac and Rappahannock Transportation Commission updates its schedules twice annually – in the spring and fall – to reflect current running times and make other changes such as updating routing and relocating bus stops as necessary.
The most significant change is the splitting of the Montclair OmniRide commuter bus service into two separate routes. This plan is being implemented in order to accommodate growing demand and provide faster and more reliable service to passengers.
