With their growing numbers, District 49 retained RTA to plan and design a new Transportation and Maintenance building to serve their ever-increasing needs.

The project was built in multiple phases with an initial phase of a 34,000-square-foot Operations/Maintenance building, visitor parking for 30 cars, and a secure, fenced bus parking lot for 175 buses. Subsequent phases added additional office space and maintenance bays, fuel islands, a wash building, and additional parking for up to 300 buses and employee parking for 389 vehicles.
In a collaborative effort, RTA worked closely with District staff through work sessions, user groups, and site visits to help craft the best long-term solution for the District. A site was chosen on an existing sports field complex located between Highway 24 and Falcon Highway.
