PART Breaks Ground for 'Coble Transportation Center'
At ground-breaking ceremonies May 13 in Greensboro, NC, the Piedmont Authority for Regional Transportation (PART) honored former Rep. Howard Coble (R-NC) by announcing that its new intermodal center, located beside the PART Administrative Office, will be named the Howard Coble Intermodal Transportation Center.
When the facility opens in late 2016, it will serve PART’s fixed routes and shuttle service in and around Piedmont Triad International Airport, as well as regional vanpools and carpools. Its location near railroad tracks provides a possibility of future rail service.
Coble said, “My vision is that this magnificent facility will help raise the awareness of public transportation and that people in the area will take more advantage of its availability.”
