5/27: Transfer Center Construction Through July

Beginning Tuesday, May 27, the Downtown Transfer Center passenger loading island will be closed for construction while we make electrical and structural upgrades.

Bus service will continue on regular schedules. However, buses will be relocated to Woody Street between Pine and Spruce Streets for the duration of construction. The Transfer Center building will remain open during regular hours.

How long will the closure last?

Construction is expected to last approximately two months, through the end of July.

Why is this construction happening now?

The Transfer Center was built for the smaller, shorter buses we used to operate, and it has served us well for many years. Now, as we adapt to new technology (including a mostly electric fleet), some infrastructure updates are required to keep the passenger loading island as safe and convenient as possible. We’re also updating some electrical components while construction is in progress.

How do I know where to find my bus?

All buses will be staging on Woody Street between Pine and Spruce. Routes 2, 3, 7, 9, 11, and 14 will line up on the west side of the street, facing south (Pine). Routes 1, 4, 5, 6, and 12 will line up on the east side of the street, facing north (Spruce). No stops will be missed, and supervisors will be on site to help direct passengers to their routes.

For any questions or trip assistance, please give us a call at 406-721-3333.
