Regional park and ride lots allow commuters, particularly those who live in rural areas, to park their vehicles at convenient location in order to finish their commute using alternative transportation, such as meeting their carpool partners or catching the SmartWay bus. Many Park and Ride lots in the region are official VDOT maintained lots, but there are several unofficial lots as well. These are generally underused parking lots belonging to local busineses, who allow commuters to use them during the day.

Spaces at some Park and Ride lots can fill up fast, so if possible take an inventory of open spaces before making use of a lot, or contact us for more info.
