Two New Shelters in Vinton

On May 17, 2023 we celebrated the installation of two new shelters. The shelter on Virginia Avenue at PFG (opened on August 8) and the newest shelter on Hardy Road at Lake Drive Plaza (opened on March 29) were constructed and installed through the generosity, hard work, and collaboration of the Vinton Breakfast Lions Club, the Town of Vinton, Renaissance Contract Lighting & Furnishings, Joseph Wall with Prestige Building & Renovation, Precision Fabrics Group (PFG), Lake Drive Plaza Shopping Center ownership group, Grand True Value Rental of Vinton, First Four Petroleum, Rosie's Gaming, and Valley Metro.

Shelters provide a more comfortable, safe, and convenient space for riders to wait for the bus. Both shelters have benches, trashcans, and solar-powered lighting. The shelter at Lake Drive Plaza includes a cart corral for shoppers taking the bus. We extend our gratitude to all these partners for their commitment to improving transit in our region.
