We are pleased to present the 2025 Afton Express Annual Report, which documents the commuter service’s performance, regional impact, and key initiatives from the past year. The report highlights the service’s fourth consecutive year of ridership growth, with 23,725 passenger trips recorded a 24% increase over 2024. This growth reflects Afton Express’ vital role in connecting the Central Shenandoah Valley and the Greater Charlottesville region.
We hope you will review the Annual Report to learn more about milestones like implementing schedule optimization to better align the service with commuter travel patterns, and broader regional outcomes associated with the service, including cost savings for riders, reductions in vehicle miles traveled, and improvements to quality of life for the regional workforce.
