The ART of Getting Around

October 25, 2017

Riding Arlington Transit – ART buses is a great way to get around Arlington car free. People who live, work and play in Arlington can take the green and white buses to restaurants, shops, parks and more. ART also connects to Metrorail and Metrobus, making it easy to get to the entire DC metro region. Let ART do the driving and take you to work, for a night out on the town and to activities on the weekend.
