Getting Around Columbia Pike
Columbia Pike is a little different from most of our other Urban Villages, in that it's not centered on a Metro station. Rather, the Pike is a major thoroughfare that stretches across south Arlington, from Arlington Cemetery and Fort Myer at the eastern end, all the way into Fairfax County to the west of Arlington. The PIke is served by frequent and reliable bus service provided by Metrobus and ART-Arlington Transit. The combined bus service is known as Pike Ride.
