Site picked for downtown Cedar Rapids bus terminal
The Linn County RPC approved a central sheltered bus terminal site on Second Street between First and Second Avenues in downtown Cedar Rapids. The MTA will use it, with an island, two enclosed waiting buildings and a canopy. Federal funds of about 1.6 million are anticipated before 1980, covering roughly 80 percent of costs. Construction timing depends on funds and mall work. The decision is not final, as APC could select a different option if viable.
