Transit

Transit, or local bus service, often serves as a community lifeline for those who do not have a personal vehicle or are unable to drive. Whether or not you have a vehicle, transit can be a great way to get around your community for work, shopping, or a doctor’s appointment. The ConnectingVA app will show you the best route to get to your destination, as well as the scheduled time of the next bus. When you log your trip, you’ll also earn points so you can enter raffles for a free gift card or other prize!

Piedmont Area Regional Transit (PART)

The Piedmont Area Regional Transit provides a fixed-route system through parts of the City of Martinsville and Henry County. Three 14-passenger, handicapped-accessible buses serve the routes. Designated stops are located at high-traffic retail areas, industrial parks, the P&HCC campus, medical facilities, and government offices.

The service operates Monday through Friday between 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Riding PART buses is currently free for everyone.

Individuals who are ADA-certified may request the van to deviate off its route to make pick-ups and drop-offs, with 24-hour advance notice. This distance of deviation may not exceed ¾ of a mile off the fixed route.

The system is managed by RADAR of Roanoke, a non-profit organization that has organized and maintained both public and private human service transportation for more than 25 years.
