Did you know that Hampton Roads is actually served by three separate transit agencies? That's right - HRT covers Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth, and Virginia Beach; Suffolk Transit serves the City of Suffolk; and the Williamsburg Area Transit Authority (WATA) covers James City County, York County/Yorktown, and Williamsburg.

Join us for this conversation featuring Ben Goodill, the Director of Planning & Administration, and Iyanla XO, the Marketing & Administrative Specialist, to learn about all things WATA!

The evolution of transit continues! In this episode, we chat with Severine Koen, the Northeast Team Lead of Via, the mobility partner of Hampton Roads Transit providing OnDemand Rideshare services.

OnDemand is currently a pilot program in Hampton Roads, available in select zones of Newport News and Virginia Beach.

Listen to Severine talk about what OnDemand Rideshare - aka Microtransit - is, how it works, and who's currently using it in Hampton Roads.

For more information, check out OnDemand.

Millennials, Gen Z and Gen Alpha are turning away from the driver's seat. In this episode of Going Places, we sit down with Scott Campbell, millennial and President of VIA Design, an architecture firm located steps away from Norfolk's MacArthur Square Tide light rail station, to talk about how young professionals feel about public transit.
