OmniRide, the leading public transit provider for Northern Virginia, is poised to expand its services to new regions, pending final budget approvals. Bob Schneider, CEO of OmniRide, shared the plans in a recent interview, highlighting the organization's efforts to connect more communities along expanding transit corridors.
OmniRide has submitted a budget amendment and several grant applications to the Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT). Once approved, the transit provider can extend its operations beyond Prince William, Stafford, and Spotsylvania counties. "This allows us to partner with any planning district, county, or municipality to operate services," Schneider explained. The amendment would enable OmniRide to offer transit solutions in areas like Warrenton and Front Royal, significantly expanding its reach.
