A Message About Services

From Ruth Hardy, Senator, Addison District

In Addison County, community volunteers have started a neighbor-to-neighbor service, Addison County Mutual Aid, to connect people who can help to people who need help. Visit the website to sign up to help or let them know you need assistance.

Food assistance continues through HOPE and CVOEO food shelves on an outside pick-up basis only. Both organizations are also still accepting donations. Individual school districts have meal and food pick-up and/or delivery services for families - see below for their websites. Hunger Free Vermont also has a good website outlining the status of food assistance programs in the face of the Coronavirus.

Tri-Valley Transit Coronavirus Update 
Due to the rapidly changing COVID-19 pandemic, Tri-Valley Transit, (dba ACTR and Stagecoach), would like to offer the following updates to our passengers. 
 
To increase social distancing measures, we are:

• Asking all passengers who can self-transport to do so and not ride the bus
• Asking all passengers who are able to stay home to do so and not ride the bus.
• Asking only nurses, doctors, child care workers, first responders, transit workers, and anyone with no other transportation options to be the only riders.
• Asking all riders to limit shopping bags on the bus to what they can carry themselves 

This is in addition to the other COVID-19 efforts currently in place at TVT, including:

• Following all CDC protocols to ensure buses are sanitized
• Operating fare free to reduce social interactions
• Directing passengers and drivers to practice safe hygiene
