Countywide Transportation Update

July 8, 2025



Capital Bikeshare Fare Changes Starting Aug. 1

Capital Bikeshare Station - Cabi e-bike

Starting August 1, prices for Capital Bikeshare will change to keep up with e-bike service demand across the region.

 

The biggest changes will be in the annual membership upfront price, and the by-the-minute rate for e-bikes. 

 

See the full update.


Reminder: East Falls Church Metro Bus Bay Work

Projects to Watch - East Falls Church Bus Bays Project

Starting the week of July 21, crews will begin construction on the East Falls Church Metro Station Bus Bay Expansion project, which is expected to be completed in summer of 2026.

 

Watch the Project Overview Video

 

The project will:

  • Repave and reconfigure the bus loop on the north side of the station to expand capacity from the current four bus bays to seven, and install new bus shelters
  • Implement pedestrian improvements on sidewalks, the Park-and-Ride lot, accessible parking spots, and crosswalks between North Sycamore Street and the bus loop driveway. 
  • Upgrade utilities and add a new signal at the intersection with North Sycamore Street

What to expect:

 

Work will begin on the north parking lot, and some spaces will close for equipment staging and initial work. There will be no impacts to bus travel during this stage, but buses will relocate during later phases of construction.

 

Learn more on the project page.


Rental Scooter and Bike Age Limits

Riders must be 18 years of age or older to use most rental e-scooter or e-bikes. This is to keep riders and those around them safe, and is part of most service agreements by rental providers.

 

I am or know someone under 18. What are other transportation options?

  • Use your own wheels! If you have your own bike or scooter, it's your own to ride safely.
  • Ride the bus for free! Arlington residents enrolled in K-12th grade are eligible for a free iRide SmarTrip card to use on all ART buses and most Metrobuses in Arlington!
