Temporary Transfer Plaza

Pursuit of a permanent transfer center continues as GRTC works with project partners, the City of Richmond, and other downtown stakeholders to navigate the complexities of site selection for a permanent downtown Richmond transportation hub. 

The Temporary Transfer Plaza opened in April 2014 and served as a reliable connection point while the City hosted two major bicycle events, 2014 USA Cycling Collegiate Road National Championship and the 2015 UCI World Road Cycling Championship. 

The Temporary Transfer Plaza:
