On Tuesday Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., Gov. Phil Scott, and Mayor Anne Watson announced the launch of the long awaited redevelopment project, refurbishing a scrap yard in the middle of downtown as a transit center for public transportation.
The transit center project on 1 Taylor Street will include a Greyhound and Green Mountain Transit bus stop, an indoor waiting hub, and 30 housing units.
The cost estimate for the project is $8 million. Leahy secured $5.1 million from the Federal Highway Administration and $1.9 million from the Federal Transit Administration for the project. Another $1.2 million will come from state grants and tax credits.
