Multimodal Transportation Center
The
Town of Normal has finalized designs for a state-of-the-art
Multimodal Transportation Center facility. The facility will be
located just
west of the Children’s Discovery Museum and north of the railroad
tracks. The Transportation Center will bring together the services
of: Amtrak trains, Amtrak High Speed Rail (HSR), interstate and
regional buses, airport shuttles, the local Bloomington-Normal Public
Transit System buses, taxis, and bicycles. The building will also
include a 280 car parking garage to accommodate vehicular parking needs
throughout Uptown Normal.
The
Transportation Center will also have a limited amount of retail
and office space, including a community room for local agencies
and organizations to use as a meeting space. The facility will undoubtedly
be a cornerstone of Uptown Normal and will serve as a gathering
space for the entire community. Construction of the building may
begin as soon as additional state and federal funding is secured. For the latest updates
on this project please contact the Uptown Office at 454-9760 or
