NEWPORT NEWS — A hub in Newport News for rail, buses, taxis and airport shuttles has been in the works for a decade, and on Tuesday, officials ceremonially broke ground at the site.
They said travelers could anticipate using the new multimodal center in August of 2022.
The future Newport News Transportation Center is a partnership among the city, the Virginia Department of Transportation and Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation. It’s expected to cost $47 million and will go in undeveloped land off Aspen Meadow Lane, near where railroad tracks that run parallel to Interstate 64 pass under Bland Boulevard.
