The Journal | Friday, April 4, 2025
The Journal reports on the Eastern Panhandle Transit Association's proposal to introduce new bus routes connecting Hedgesville and Spring Mills by 2026. The planned routes will link to a new Multimodal Transit Center set to open in downtown Martinsburg, enhancing transportation options throughout the region. Changes include simplifying existing routes, optimizing stops based on ridership, and improving connectivity to popular destinations like the VA Medical Center. This initiative follows a public survey indicating a demand for more accessible stops outside Martinsburg, particularly in areas like Ranson and Inwood, and is part of EPTA's broader goal to boost ridership and service efficiency.
