Beginning September 5, 2021, DASH
will be implementing the first phase of the Alexandria Transit Vision Plan, known as
the New DASH Network, which includes major route and service changes that will affect all DASH passengers.
It represents a reduced, cost-neutral version of the Final 2022 ATV Plan that was adopted by the ATC Board of
Directors in December 2019. The full recommendations and service increases that were included in the Final 2022
ATV Plan will be proposed incrementally in FY 2022 and FY 2023, as outlined in the FY 2022 – FY 2027 Alexandria Transit Company TDP.
What is the New DASH
Network?
The New DASH Network is the first
major bus network redesign project the City of Alexandria has seen since the launch of the Alexandria Transit
Company in 1984. The network will provide access to high-frequency service with buses running every 15 minutes
or better, all day, seven days a week to 50,000 additional residents and nearly 25,000 additional jobs.
Key information about the FY2022 New
DASH Network:
The New DASH Network represents a
complete redesign of Alexandria’s bus network that is intended to meet current and future transit ridership
demand, and to encourage more people to use transit for more trips at more times of day.
