Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation

Virginia's Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT) works to make it possible to move people and goods throughout Virginia.

Quality rail and public transportation services are essential for Virginia quality of life and for economic development. DRPT's Rail Division supports Rail Improvement, Industrial Access and Grade Crossing projects.

In addition, staff provides assistance for passenger rail operations in the state including commuter and intercity services. Our Public Transportation programs help the bus or train rider on one of Virginia's transit systems, the riders in carpools and vanpools, and even the telecommuter.

By working together with many partners, we improve mobility, work to improve air quality and help ensure that Virginia remains an attractive place to live and work.
