NORFOLK, Va. – Hampton Roads Transit (HRT) is increasing security and awareness on all transit modes, including The Tide light rail and its 11 stations in Norfolk.
Effective immediately, HRT will join transit agencies across the nation who are enhancing security and awareness to provide safe and efficient operations for customers with additional security measures throughout the system.
The additional security measures will complement the standard patrols and closed-circuit video monitoring currently being performed.
These additional security measures will be in place as commuters head back to work after the holidays. HRT anticipates providing enhanced security for the foreseeable future.
If customers witness suspicious behavior while on transit, they are asked to dial 911 immediately.
