The Transit Maintenance Services Building is located on S. 15th Street adjacent to I-80. The project includes renovation of an existing building to accommodate fleet maintenance, a 7,940gsf bus maintenance facility, a 12,000gsf enclosed bus storage facility, a 6,400gsf open-air metal canopy, and a 16,000gsf open-air metal canopy. The vehicle maintenance shop provides enhanced space for maintenance equipment and storage. The project will enable UW Transportation Services to provide better service and maintenance to the University’s robust transit system fleet with modern structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems.
