Newport News Shipbuilding encourages car and vanpooling, and the Group Rider program is being revamped.

Employees must register online to receive a new parking tag that will enable parking in Zone A, B or C lots. Currently issued Group Rider decals will no longer be valid after Dec. 5.

To register as a group rider with NNS, go to MyNNS and locate the Parking and Transportation page and click on the “Become a Group Rider” link.

The Newport News Transit Center at 35th Street also has designated parking spots for registered NNS group riders. Visit GoTraffix.com and click on programs to find out more.
