Thank you to @Ride_Jaunt for hosting the 3rd session yesterday for our Virginia Transit Leadership Institute! Our #VTLI fellows spent the day hearing from #transit leaders in the area, such as Jaunt's Mike Murphy, @RideWithCAT Garland Williams, & @UVA UTS' Kendall Howell.


It's getting chilly out here in Virginia! For this holiday season, there's many alternatives to driving (and flying) to get closer to family and loved ones. Some great options are public transit and rail! Do you have any fun traveling plans for the holidays?
