On Friday morning, GoTriangle marked a major milestone in the Triangle region’s transit future with a celebratory ribbon cutting for the new Raleigh Union Station Bus Facility, known as RUS Bus. The ceremony took place at the intersection of West Martin Street and South West Street in downtown Raleigh, right in the heart of the city’s historic Warehouse District.
The state-of-the-art RUS Bus facility is a $40.7 million project that provides six off-street bus bays, two layover bays, passenger waiting areas, restrooms, and amenities such as benches, lockers, bike and scooter racks, wayfinding maps, assistance stations, and local information. The new transit center will officially open for service on Sunday, August 3, serving GoTriangle commuter routes to Durham, Chapel Hill, and Research Triangle Park (RTP).
