The new park and ride lot in Montgomery County on Route 8 (West Main Street) just off Interstate 81 at exit 114, Christiansburg, is now open.
The new park and ride includes approximately 80 parking spaces, a bus shelter, bike racks and lighting. New sidewalks and a crosswalk across Route 8 tie into the existing pedestrian facilities. The 1.5-acre facility is about 0.2 miles north of the exit 114 interchange and can be accessed from Route 666 (Mud Pike). Construction started in 2025.
Park and Ride lots are available for use when commuting to work or school, or when sightseeing, shopping, running errands, etc. Blacksburg Transit will also utilize the lot as a stop. The lots allow commuters, particularly long-distance commuters, to park their vehicles or bikes at a convenient location and then finish their commute using alternative transportation modes – carpool, vanpool, bus, train or bike.
