(Grant for Calexico Transit Hub).....The Imperial County Transportation Commission obtains grant funds.

The US Department of Transportation approved the $12.8 million. The grant will fund the construction of the Transportation Hub and possibly help the City obtain the proposed site. They want to construct the new facility at 3rd and Rockwood. A vacant building is currently at the site. Construction on the new facility is not planned to begin until 2025, with completion anticipated for July 2026. When complete the facility would provide a location for ticket sales, shaded canopies, waiting areas, benches, bicycle racks, security ins\frastructure, public restrooms, ADA compliant pedestrian sidewalks and more. It is hoped the facility would provide easy access to travel around the county and possibly reduce traffic congestion in the Border City.
