April 12, 2024

The Alexandria Transit Company, which operates DASH bus service and the King Street Trolley in the City of Alexandria, is pleased to announce that the proposed service changes in the Alexandria Transit Strategic Plan (ATSP) for fiscal year 2025 have been approved. The ATSP was approved by the agency’s Board of Directors on April 10, 2024 and will be referred to the City Council for consideration in the City’s budget process.

Proposed service changes include:

  • Reduction of Line 104 service from every 30 minutes to every 60 minutes
  • Increase of Line 32 service from every 60 minutes to every 30 minutes during middays, evenings and weekends
  • Increase of Line 34 service from every 60 minutes to every 30 minutes on Sundays
  • Increase of Line 31 service from every 30 minutes to 15 minutes between King Street Metro and Braddock Road Metro during middays, evenings and weekends.

Formerly known as the Transit Development Plan (TDP), the ATSP provides a comprehensive vision of future service development, fare adjustments, and capital investments for transit services within the City of Alexandria. It is updated yearly and is based on requirements outlined by the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT).
