"For me, Richmond Moves is much more than an affordable and
environmentally friendly transportation option in my hometown. Each
Richmond Moves van also serves as a small community gathering
space. Each time that I’ve used the on-demand shuttle service
I’ve met someone new in our community. I’ve
shared a ride with a Richmond native who recently moved back home
after a decade away and just started a job working for a city
department. I’ve commuted with a new Richmond resident who
uses Richmond Moves as an opportunity to learn about their new
city. I’ve conversed with drivers who don’t hesitate to
share their excitement for the new shuttle service and the
opportunities it presents to our community. As a lifelong Richmond
resident, I hope that my community will continue to be a leader in
climate action. I hope that we continue to prioritize equitable
mobility, and I hope that we can continue to bring our diverse
community together in ways that benefit and strengthen us all.
Richmond Moves represents these goals and more, and I’m
excited to see how the shuttle service’s impact will expand
with additional resources."
