Sacramento unveiled plans this week for a modern downtown transportation hub that would serve millions of train-, bus- and transit-using Northern Californians and act as a people-gathering spot between the capital city’s downtown and the redeveloping railyard.
The vision for the 17-acre, city-owned site, which includes the historic Sacramento Valley Station depot, focuses on a new passenger station and concourse above the Amtrak platforms, with plazas to the north and south. A regional and Northern California bus hub would be integrated into the station.
