SVRTA, OV/EORTA announce partnership | News, Sports, Jobs

Posted on September 15, 2021 by sNawaWebs.ADV

STEUBENVILLE – A partnership between the Steel Valley Regional Transit Authority and the Ohio Valley/Eastern Ohio Regional Transportation Authority will greatly enhance the opportunities for the riding public in the communities they serve beginning in October, officials announced Thursday afternoon.

The transit systems will be linking their services for the expansion of routes and extended service hours. The transfer point will be at the Rayland Park-N-Ride, which is currently being constructed with an expected completion date of Sept. 30. SVRTA passengers will now have the ability to travel to the Ohio Valley Mall and the Highlands while OVRTA/EORTA customers will be able to travel to the Robinson Township area for work, recreation and shopping. There also will be the opportunity in Robinson Township to connect with the Port Authority of Allegheny County for those traveling to Pittsburgh International Airport or the city. Connections with the Airport Corridor Transit Association also will be available.

“This service is part of the Steel Valley Regional Transit Authority’s expansion of routes and extended service hours. We want to sincerely thank the staff at OVRTA/EORTA for working with us to begin the process of linking our systems together for the benefit of both transit systems passengers,” said Tim Turner, SVRTA transit manager.

SVRTA provides service to Steubenville and the nearby communities, while OVRTA/EORTA provides service to Wheeling and the surrounding areas. The OVRTA board approved the partnership in July, while the EORTA and SVRTA boards gave their nod of approval in August.

Lisa Weishar, executive director of the Wheeling-based transit providers, explained the buses will connect at the Park-N-Ride six times daily, Monday through Friday, at 8:38 a.m., 10:08 a.m., 11:18 a.m., 12:28 p.m., 4:03 p.m., and 5:21 p.m. They will connect five times on Saturday at 10:08 a.m., 11:18 a.m., 1:38 p.m., 2:53 p.m. and 5:21 p.m. There will not be bus service on Sunday.

“This opens up many opportunities in the Tri-State Area,” she said.

The Wheeling fares will remain the same. A one-way trip from Steubenville to the Rayland Park-N-Ride is $3. However, if a rider has a SVRTA annual bus pass, there will be no additional charge. All other transit system fares remain the responsibility of the rider.
