\n\nABOUT THE PROJECT

\n\nThe Watt\/I-80 Transit Center Improvement Project includes widening of the Watt Avenue Bridge, construction of an open-air stairwell linking Watt Avenue and the transit center, a new bus\/pedestrian plaza, improvements to I-80 on-ramps, and upgrades to the portion of the transit center located beneath Watt Avenue.

\n\nThese improvements will help attract more riders, accommodate additional bus service from other regional operators, and enhance the overall safety and accessibility of the transit center.

\n\nRiders can expect temporary modifications in bus service during construction. Drivers commuting to the transit center for bus or light rail service may also experience brief delays due to lane closures.

\n\nThe project is expected to be completed by summer 2026.
