Transit Data Portals in Virginia – and Beyond- Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation

Virginia has forty public transit providers, covering all corners of the Commonwealth. Each collects a range of data on its services, many of which (such as ridership or time and distance a vehicle is in service) are reported to DRPT. Several of Virginia’s transit agencies have independently developed data portals to their websites, making their data available and accessible to the public. These transit agencies collect data at a far more granular level than those data reported to DRPT. Below, Data Stories covers each data portal and its transit provider, and includes a few additional data resources from the federal government or transit advocacy groups.
