The Town of Truckee anticipated significant growth in transit ridership and operations, which was expected to increase congestion and safety challenges at its over-capacity transit center. To address these issues, Green DOT prepared the Transit Center Relocation Feasibility Study to identify the most suitable site for a new facility that could meet both current and future transit needs.
The study evaluated multiple site alternatives and laid the groundwork for the development of a new or expanded transit center. As part of the process, the Town of Truckee entered into an agreement with Neighborhood Partners, who committed $1 million toward construction costs, leveraging State and Federal grant opportunities.
Green DOT, in partnership with Nelson\Nygaard, AIM Consulting, and Design Workshop, conducted a comprehensive analysis that included site location studies, transit needs assessments, community outreach, and planning-level site designs. The resulting study provided the Town with a clear framework to guide decision-making regarding relocation and to enhance transit access and capacity within the community.
Phase I construction of the Railyard Mobility Hub began in late July of 2023. Phase 2 will be funded over multiple years through a $4.4 million grant through the Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP).
