Intermodal Center

The Intermodal Center serves as the primary transfer hub for The M and provides connections to Greyhound Lines intercity buses. The $6 million project opened September 10, 2007.^[4] While Greyhound had once been located at the Freedom Rides Museum, intercity buses used a 1951 facility at 950 W. South Ave. from 1995 until April 15, 2019, when Greyhound relocated once again downtown to the Intermodal Center.^[5]
