History

Initial transit center

Planning for the Spokane Community College transit center began around 1982^[3] and the center opened c. 1984.^[4] It was later reconstructed during summer 2013^[5] in a project that replaced all existing shelter structures and added additional bus loading zones. The 2013 improvements are intended to be an interim solution as the transit center will eventually be replaced by a newer and larger one.

2019 relocation

The decision was made to reconstruct the Spokane Community College transit center at a site on the opposite side of campus. Growing transit operations combined with site constraints, particularly the construction of an elevated North Spokane Corridor adjacent to the current site, limit the future potential of the transit center in its current form. Construction on the new transit center began in 2019 and was completed in December 2019.^[6]

Location
