Thank you to the The Vineyard Gazette for recently highlighting the VTA's newest route planned for the Meshacket Commons area in Edgartown.

Beginning June 19, the new route is expected to provide service every half hour during the peak season, connecting residents along Meeting House Way, Meshacket Road, and surrounding neighborhoods with downtown Edgartown and the rest of the VTA network. The route was developed in response to residential growth in the area, including the recently completed Meshacket Commons affordable housing project.

We are excited to continue expanding transportation options that help connect Island residents to jobs, services, shopping, and community destinations.

Thank you to the Gazette for sharing the story. Be sure to check it out and learn more about this exciting addition to the VTA system.

A new bus route will begin operations later this month to serve vacationers and Island residents living along Meeting House Way and Meshacket Road.

Thank you to The Martha's Vineyard Times for their recent article highlighting the new bus shelter in Aquinnah.

Designed and built by Island artist Tim Laursen, the shelter was built with natural materials and inspired by the surrounding landscape. It is a wonderful example of how public transportation infrastructure can complement the character of our Island communities.

Stop by and see it for yourself the next time you are up-Island!
