Getting around Hampton Road​s can be hard, especially during rush hour. Roads clog. Tunnels jam. Public transit is thin. There is almost no good alternative to driving a car.
Driving, walking, bicycling, and taking the bus are the main modes of transportation in Virginia Beach. Every year the city is making that network better - widening roads, making transit improvements, building new biking and walking trails. It's all part of a long-term plan. Improvements are being made mile by mile, but it takes time. And no single element will alleviate the gridlock, because everything is connected.​So, how do you want to travel? It’s all about having options. All you have to do is pick one.
