NORFOLK, Va. –Hampton Roads Transit (HRT) is going places with the launch of a new podcast.
HRT today launched “Going Places,” a podcast that brings new perspectives to transit. It aims to explore fresh insights on transportation and mobility.
Whether you’re a commuter, employer, interested in making transit more accessible for all, or simply want to know how we operate, the podcast will cover topics and trends with HRT experts, industry thought leaders, community trailblazers, and everyday transit users.
“We are committed to communicating with the communities we serve. This new podcast expands our communications toolbox to reach additional audiences in a modern, on-the-go audio format. We look forward to hosting engaging conversations with a variety of people.”
