The bus system provides service within Arlington County, and connects to Metrobus, nearby Metrorail stations, Virginia Railway Express, and other local bus systems. Most ART routes serve to connect county neighborhoods to local Metrorail stations, as well as the Shirlington Bus Station during morning and evening peak periods. It includes part of the Pike Ride service along Columbia Pike, which is shared with WMATA. ART is operated by National Express Transit Corporation and currently operates 81 buses. ART provides a fixed-route bus service within Arlington County on sixteen routes and carries almost three million passengers annually. As part of the Arlington Initiative to Reduce Emission project (AIRE), the entire ART bus fleet runs on clean-burning Compressed Natural Gas in order to be environmentally friendly in Arlington County.[7] ART’s purpose is to supplement the regional rail and bus service provided by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA), providing local bus service, and connecting to neighborhoods, businesses, and departments within Arlington County. HistoryBefore ART's inception, WMATA was the only transit agency that served Arlington County, providing both bus and rail service. Some Metrobus routes served the neighborhoods of Arlington County, connecting them to the Metrorail system. In November of 1998, the Arlington County board created the ART service, as part of their effort to improve transportation in the county.[8] ART’s first route served Crystal City, while other routes were still operated by Metrobus. On September 7, 2003, a new service was started along Columbia Pike, known as Pike Ride.[9][10] It was first operated by Metrobus and served by the 16 line, heading to Pentagon Station. On April 7, 2003, ART began providing Pike Ride routes by introducing ART Route 41.[11] Route 41 started serving points west of South Glebe Road, including the neighborhood of Arlington Mill. Service was then increased with ART routes 74 and 75. Route 74 provided service to the eastern portion of the area, and the neighborhoods of Arlington Village and Arlington View. Route 75 served the neighborhood of Arlington Mill, along with Route 41. ART Route 73 was also part of the Pike Ride system, which served the eastern portion of Columbia Pike, along with Route 74, and the neighborhood of Arlington Heights. Route 73 was discontinued on September 30, 2005 due to low ridership. In 2006, ART began increasing service, both by acquiring Metrobus routes and by bringing service to more neighborhoods. Metrobus Route 24P was the first route to be converted to ART, as Route 42. In 2009, route 42 was expanded to full week service. The GEORGE bus system was originally operated by Metrobus, until the City of Falls Church transferred operations to ART.[12] This bus system served as a feeder to Metrorail stations at the east and west ends of the City. The GEORGE service was ultimately suspended in 2010 due to budget constraints.[13] In 2008, the Shirlington Bus Station, also known as the Shirlington Transit Center, opened in The Village at Shirlington.[14][15] The Shirlington Bus Station is located at South Quincy Street near the intersection of South Randolph Street and 31st Street South. The bus station is also located near Shirley Highway (I-395). This bus station is accessible from Shirlington Circle to head to Pentagon and Pentagon City Stations. With the opening of the new bus station, ART and Metrobus began using it as major transfer point. This bus station connects most bus routes to nearby Metrorail stations, as well as the neighborhood of Fairlington. The Shirlington Bus Station also provides access to the Village at Shirlington, as it provides local restaurants, arts and entertainments, Shirlington Branch Library, and stores.[16] In 2014, the Alexandria Transit Company’s DASH bus began serving this station with the AT9 route, connecting it to the City of Alexandria.[17] The county has been converting it's bus fleet to Compressed Natural Gas, starting with it's order of NABI LFW buses in 2007.[18] Older buses, as well as the GEORGE buses, ran on diesel fuel. Since the GEORGE bus system was suspended, the ART fleet run only on CNG fuel. From 2007, ART increased and improved on its bus routes to reduce crowding. In 2011, ART ordered the Designline EcoSaver CNG-Electric Hybrid buses.[19] These buses are different than the other buses, as other agencies ordered Diesel-electric Hybrid buses. In 2013, ART removed them from service due to brake failure issues.[20] Since these buses didn’t return in service, ART returns to provide CNG fueled buses only. RidershipART carries over 10,000 passengers per weekday[21] within Arlington County. Route 41, which runs through Columbia Pike, is ART's busiest route with about 2,000 rides per weekday, with the 15 minute peak period. In 2017, ART ordered 13 new 40' New Flyer Xcelsior CNG buses, which are different from its fleet, as NABI discontinued its LFW models in 2015.[22] These buses went in service in September, 2018 on routes 41, 43, and 55 to provide reliable service, and reduce crowding. FaresAs of June 25, 2017, ART's fares are $2.00 for riders using cash or SmarTrip cards. Virginia Hospital Center employees and Arlington employees that carries a hospital ID rides routes 51 and 52 for free.[23] Students, senior citizens and disabled patrons only pay $1.00.[24] As of January 4, 2009, ART no longer issues or accepts paper transfers. Riders must use a SmarTrip card to get the rail-to-bus discount or to transfer free from bus to bus. Starting September 3, 2013, students of Arlington Public Schools that attends elementary, middle, or high school may obtain an iRide SmarTrip Card that allows students of Arlington County to ride ART Buses for the discounted student rate of $1.00.[25][26] Fleet
Routes
Former RoutesThese routes have been served by Arlington Transit at one point but have since been discontinued due to either low ridership, simplification to other routes, or combined into another route.
