About BRITE

BRITE Overview

BRITE (Blue Ridge Intercity Transit Express) is a public bus transit system serving the Staunton, Waynesboro, and Augusta County region of Virginia, administered by the Central Shenandoah Planning District Commission (CSPDC). BRITE has evolved from early local transportation efforts into a coordinated fixed-route and paratransit network after community leaders and partners sought to improve access to essential destinations like hospitals and employment, with modern fixed routes officially launching in 2002. With oversight and planning from the CSPDC and guidance from the BRITE Transit Advisory Committee, we aim to offer reliable scheduled transportation connecting communities across the region, working towards goals of enhancing mobility, accessibility, and quality of life for all residents.
