Prince George’s County has officially launched GoPGC, a systemwide transformation of its local transit network that brings County-operated
transportation services under a unified identity while advancing efforts to modernize the rider experience.
Formerly known as TheBus, GoPGC builds on more than 35 years of County transit service. The transition began this summer and will continue across transit fleets, routes, and programs as part of the County’s broader PGC Transit Transformation.
Beyond the new name and visual identity, Prince George’s is expanding Sunday service on select routes and continuing investments in technology, passenger amenities, and cleaner transportation to improve convenience, reliability, and accessibility for riders.
Under the new system, County transit services include:
- GoPGC, formerly TheBus, the County’s fare-free fixed-route bus service.
- PGC Link, an on-demand service offering flexible routes based on real-time rider demand.
- Plus, formerly Call-A-Bus, providing demand-response service for eligible seniors and individuals with disabilities who cannot use traditional fixed-route transit.
- Express, a planned limited-stop service designed to provide faster connections between major destinations through fewer stops and other mobility enhancements.
The transformation is rooted in the County’s Transit Vision Plan, a long-term framework designed to respond to changing population, development, and transportation needs.
“For more than 35 years our transit system has connected residents to work, education, services, and opportunity,” said Prince George’s County Executive Aisha Braveboy. “As we attract new development and strengthen our economic future, transit must evolve with us.”
The County officially launched GoPGC in early September, with County leaders, community partners, and employees gathering to recognize the transit system’s history and its next phase.
