Roanoke leaders looking for ways to get bus service to Lynchburg Amtrak station

City leaders in Roanoke are brainstorming how to offer daily bus service to the Amtrak station in Lynchburg.

Officials hope to obtain a state grant to help pay for the service, which could start by July and would cost about $325,000 a year to operate.

The plan also calls for bus service to Blacksburg on Fridays and on the weekends.
