🎉 36 Years of Service. One Incredible Journey. 🚌 This week, we say congrats and farewell to Earl Jackson, who is retiring after 36 years with DASH. Earl started behind the wheel of one of our very first buses on the road in 1984. 🏙️💙 Thank you, Earl. From all of us at DASH, it has been an honor. 👏

DASH Weather Advisory for the afternoon of March 16

DASH Shines at the 2026 Virginia State Bus Roadeo! 🏆 We had a great showing at this year’s State Roadeo. The Director of DRPT even complimented our operators for looking sharp and professional. Our operators placed 8th, 14th, 17th, and 26th, and the maintenance team finished 5th out of 9 teams. 💪

🚍 Service Update: Monday, February 23 We plan to operate regular weekday service with no snow detours at the start of service. We will continue monitoring weather and road conditions. Snow detours may be implemented with little notice, either line-by-line or system-wide.

🚨 All snow detours will be lifted and regular service resumes Thursday, Feb. 5 at 8 PM. 🎉 Thanks so much for your patience while we worked to get service back safely. 💙💛 Please allow a little extra travel time, as some delays may continue due to lingering snow and ice. ❄

As conditions continue to improve, two additional snow detours will be lifted on Tuesday, February 3, at 8 PM. Regular service will resume in the Armistead & Reed Avenue areas. Detours will remain in effect for the Bradlee/Fort Ward & Parkfairfax areas until it’s safe to restore normal service.
