Elizabeth River Ferry Waterside Dock Construction
Starting Tuesday, September 8, the Elizabeth River Ferry stop at the Waterside Dock will not be serviced due to ongoing construction by the City of Norfolk until further notice. Ferry service to Norfolk will board/disembark at Harbor Park. Once passengers arrive at Harbor Park, they will be directed via signs along accessible walkways to a shuttle bus that will take passengers to Waterside. Shuttle departure information is as follows:
- Departing Harbor Park – Customers will board shuttle buses at a temporary bus stop on the Main Street sidewalk (parallel to the light rail)
- Departing Waterside – Customers will board shuttle buses at a temporary bus stop at Atlantic Avenue and Waterside Drive (on the side of Waterside Garage)
Customers may also use The Tide light rail station at Harbor Park. From there, passengers may take The Tide westbound to downtown, or passengers may access the Elizabeth River Trail from the ferry stop. Fares for the ferry will be honored on The Tide light rail so only one ticket is needed for the transfer. Proof of payment on light rail includes showing a pass, round-trip ticket or one-way ticket receipt.
Customers wishing to use the ferry for the Norfolk Tides baseball games will still need to show their ticket for that day’s game for a free ride, but may now board at either ferry stop in Portsmouth. Due to the added round-trip travel time, the ferry will operate about every 45 minutes.
Mid-Atlantic Shrine Association Parade
The City of Virginia Beach will hold the Mid-Atlantic Shrine Association Parade at the oceanfront on Saturday, September 12, 2026. Atlantic Avenue will be closed between 9th Street and 29th Street, 8:30 AM – 1:00 PM. The Route 30 will not run until after 1:00 PM. All other routes at the oceanfront will not be impacted, but customers should expect delays due to an increase in traffic.
Newport News Southeast Community Day Parade
The City of Newport News will host the Southeast Community Day Parade on Saturday, September 12, 2026. From approximately 8:00 AM until 2:00 PM, the Routes 101, 103, 104, 105, and 112 will detour.
Route 112
Due to the parade and events, the 112 will be unable to provide service between the Newport News Transit Center and 6th and Ivy. Customers will need to board and disembark at the transit center until the end of the event.

New Ticket Vending Machines: Discounted Fare
Hampton Roads Transit is in the process of installing new ticket vending machines at all light rail stations for the new GoMobile app and card. These new vending machines will no longer issue paper discounted fare passes. Customers who qualify for discounted fares will need to take action in accordance with the following:
- Customers who already have an HRT Discounted Fare ID – Please contact Customer Service at 757-222-6100, Monday – Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM. Once your information has been verified, you will need to establish a GoMobile account and associate your means of payment with your GoMobile account.
- Customers who do not have an HRT Discounted Fare ID – Please visit a Customer Service Representative at your local transit center. Hours may be found on the Customer Service page on GoHRT.com.
As always, customers may still purchase discounted fare passes at local retail outlets, transit centers, and on Hampton Roads Transit buses.
Free Light Rail, Ferry Service Can Take You to the Ballpark This Season
Once again, this season, Hampton Roads Transit (HRT) is partnering with the City of Norfolk and the Norfolk Tides baseball team to provide free transit to and from home games.
With limited parking continuing due to casino construction, HRT encourages fans to take The Tide light rail and Elizabeth River Ferry to get to Harbor Park stadium starting with the season opener on Friday, March 27 at 6:35 PM.
Free rides on The Tide light rail are available two hours before and after each game. Fans can show their ticket for that day’s game for a free ride on light rail to and from the stadium.
Fans are encouraged to park for free at three park-and-ride lots at Tide stations: Newtown Road Station (Newtown Road and Kempsville Road), Military Highway Station (Curlew Drive and Corporate Boulevard), and Ballentine/Broad Creek Station (Ballentine Boulevard and I-264).
Fans can also take the ferry from North Landing in Portsmouth for free to and from the Harbor Park Landing for every game. Free rides are available only to the Harbor Park Landing, not to Waterside Landing.
Ferry service runs every 30 minutes beginning one hour before game time until 30 minutes after the game or fireworks end. Parking for the ferry in Portsmouth is free at city garages after 5 PM on weekdays and all day on weekends. The closest parking to North Landing may be found at the Harbor Court, Water Street, and Middle Street parking garages.
In Norfolk, MacArthur South Garage will be free for game patrons. The garage is just two light rail stops, or a roughly 15-minute walk, from Harbor Park. Fans parking at the garage can catch The Tide at MacArthur Station for the free light rail ride to the stadium.
When leaving Harbor Park, fans using light rail are urged to be patient and observe lines that will be set up outside the stadium near the main entrance. One line will be for eastbound Tide light rail traffic in the direction of Newtown Road with the other for westbound travel toward EVMC/Fort Norfolk Station.
HRT reminds fans to be safe around tracks. Use designated crosswalks and sidewalks to reach the station.
Naval Station Norfolk: Paratransit Service Restriction

Paratransit customers must use the Base Express for travel through the gates or on the base. Customers may board/disembark at any Base Express stop. The off-base stop is the Naval Exchange. Customers should expect delays at all local military installations.

The Routes 20, 33, and 960 will operate on a detour until further notice.
