StarTran - Lincoln Transit

Post by Renovator2559 »

The mayor of Lincoln recently announced a multi-modal transit center, that will be built. The transit center looks very nice, as the renders show.

They don't mention rail or train anywhere on that page. Focus seemed to be on ride shares, bike shares, scooters, and future regional and intra-city bus routes.

From the Journal Star, some renderings of the parking garage that's being built to replace the current parking "garage" while the parking lot becomes the transit center.

That parking garage could use a few more floors to give it the proper presence. Surely there's enough current and potential future demand?

It’s adding about 200 stalls. K Street Power Plant building across the street is planned to be redeveloped at some point
