As per wtop.com, "With a return to full service, French-based public transit operator Transdev, which handles operations for the bus system, will continue following cleaning and disinfecting procedures provided by public health officials. This includes enhanced vehicle cleaning and disinfecting all bus interiors and critical areas, such as door handles and handrails. Customers are required to enter and exit the bus using the rear doors. Per an executive order signed by Gov. Ralph Northam, passengers must wear a face covering on a Fairfax Connector bus. Face coverings are available for those who enter without one while supplies last."
The Fairfax Connector will resume its pre-pandemic services from Saturday, Aug. 29, as well as adding new routes. The bus system operated at approximately 70% during the COVID-19 pandemic to ensure transportation options for some of the region’s essential workers.
