Effective Monday, July 3, 2023, Loudoun County Transit will close the Purcellville Park and Ride lot permanently. As a result, several Silver Line and Commuter Bus routes will be impacted.
Purcellville Park & Ride Lot Closure
Beginning Monday, July 3, commuters who use the existing park and ride lot in Purcellville will be directed five miles east to the Harmony Park and Ride lot located at 39464 East Colonial Highway, in Hamilton. This 250-space parking lot provides daytime free parking for carpools, vanpools and bus riders as well as bike lockers and EV charging stations.
Visit loudoun.gov/parkandridelots to view alternative lot locations near you.
Purcellville Bus Schedule Changes
The closing of the park and ride lot also results in changes to bus service within the Town of Purcellville. Routes 391, 483, 883, 884 and 885 will pick up and/or drop off passengers at the Harmony Park and Ride lot beginning with the morning commute on July 3.
Bus passengers are encouraged to view upcoming bus service adjustments for the impacted routes at loudoun.gov/buschanges. On July 3, bus service adjustments will begin and new schedules will be posted at loudoun.gov/busschedules.
The bus stop For Route 40, which is operated by Virginia Regional Transit (VRT), will move to Browning Court just outside the current lot. There will be curb parking available.
Background
The existing park and ride lot has temporarily occupied the current location until a new park and ride lot could be built. The county had planned to build a new park and ride lot within the Town of Purcellville located south of Allder School Road and adjacent to the future Route 7/690 interchange. The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors canceled the capital project following a vote by the Purcellville Town Council in March 2023 to rescind the necessary permissions the county needed to construct the new lot. Since there are no longer plans to construct a new park and ride lot within the Town of Purcellville, the temporary property will be returned to its owner for other uses.
