MATA South Intermodal Terminal

The South Intermodal Terminal will be a major focal point for local transit services in the Whitehaven area and improve MATA's ability to make efficient connections to intercity bus services. A future use would be a station on the Downtown-Airport light rail line. MATA will own and operate the terminal. Greyhound Lines Inc. will be the major tenant.

The terminal will be constructed on about nine acres of property on the northwest corner of the intersection of Airways Blvd. and Brooks Road. The site has been cleared to make way for a new, state of the art terminal. To demonstrate its commitment to environmentally responsible “green building”, MATA is pursuing LEED certification for the project.

The following functions will be accommodated:

A. Bus Transit Center.
B. Greyhound Terminal
C. Taxi Stand
D. Parking
E. Police Substation
F. Future Light Rail Passenger Station

 Construction is expected to begin in early 2010.
