New Gwinnett Place Transit Center - Gwinnett County

The County kicked off the planning effort for the project in 2018 when the Connect Gwinnett -Transit plan recommended a replacement of the existing Gwinnett Place Transit Center with a modern facility built to accommodate major, county-wide expansion of transit service. It will serve as a key part of the county’s effort to redevelop Gwinnett Place Mall into a regionally significant transit-oriented development. The new transit facility will be constructed to maximize energy efficiency and accommodate electric bus charging and other future technologies. Once completed, it will provide modern amenities to riders, access to a future BRT, and integrated multi-modal connections to bicycle, pedestrian and trail, and rider sharing infrastructure. As of June 5, 2023, Site feasibility study and selection, and conceptual design are about to wrap up this month, June 2023.The County is currently working on the procurement process to solicit an architectural and engineering firm to begin the preliminary engineering work for the project. The request for qualification (RFQ) is anticipated to be issued in August or September 2023. Preliminary engineering is expected to be complete by end of 2023 and to procure a Design-Build vendor by April 2024. Based on these planning efforts, three phases were proposed: 1) Phase 1- Gwinnett Place Transit Center • A two-story transit center building will house on-site customer service, public restrooms, and operator restrooms and break area. The attached mobility building will offer travel training, serve disabled riders seeking mobility assistance and to qualify for paratransit service. • Expanded bus bays from five to 12 bays including two for articulated buses with amenities, including overhead canopies, real-time displays, and seating. Designated bus bays will accommodate electric vehicle charging to align with the County’s first ever zero-emission fleet transition plan, currently underway in collaboration with the Atlanta Transit Link Authority (ATL). • Enhanced first-mile/last-mile connectivity including new sidewalks and a 12-foot-wide multi-use trail through the site that will link to the regional greenway corridor planned by the County. The transit center will also include a Kiss N Ride facility and EV charging stations located in the new park and ride facility. 2) Phase 2- BRT Station at Gwinnett Place 3) Phase 3- County Office and Conference Center
