maintain a secure environment for all users. Bollard posts around pedestrian and vehicle access points
will be re-sealed to prevent corrosion and extend their structural integrity, contributing to both vehicle
and pedestrian safety. Repair active leaks from the roof stairwell into the elevator shaft to prevent
further water damage and preserve elevator functionality, and eliminate safety hazards for passengers
and maintenance staff. The interior of the ticketing office will be patched, repainted, and restored to
provide a clean, safe, and welcoming environment for transit users and staff.
These targeted improvements are essential to maintaining a functional, safe, and accessible transit
facility that serves thousands of local and regional riders each year. All activities will be completed in
accordance with FTA guidelines and local procurement standards. This will improve safety, durability,
and reduce long-term maintenance costs.
Expected outcomes:

Facility will enhance the safety, functionality, and longevity of this critical transportation hub.
Improvements will ensure continued reliable access to local and regional transit services, support
increased commuter demand, and promote the use of public transportation. Additionally, the project will
improve user experience,ADA accessibility, and operational efficiency, helping to sustain and grow
Round Rocks transit infrastructure for years to come.

Project Description
The City of Round Rock seeks funding through the FTA Section 5339 Bus and Bus Facilities
Discretionary Program to complete critical structural repairs and upgrades to the Round Rock
Intermodal Parking and Transit Facility (Transit Center). Originally constructed in 2011, and expanded
with a Ticketing Office in 2014, the Transit Center serves as the primary transit hub for Round Rock and
surrounding areas, facilitating essential connections between local fixed-route services and regional
commuter bus routes.
This project will address deferred maintenance, restore the facility to a state of good repair, and
modernize key elements including structural components, lighting, signage, ADA accessibility features,
and passenger amenities. The project ensures the facility remains safe, accessible, and capable of
supporting increasing ridership and evolving mobility needs.
Project Benefits
As ridership increases and the facility ages, maintenance needs have escalated, including structural
wear on the parking garage, Without these upgrades, the facility risks falling below operational and
safety standards, which would negatively impact transit users particularly those who rely on it for daily
mobility.This project will provide the following benefits:
Safety: Structural improvements will reduce long-term risk to passengers, vehicles and staff.
State of Good Repair: The Project addresses deferred maintenance to extend facility lifespan.
Sustainability: Supports increased use of transit over single-occupancy vehicles, reducing congestion &
emissions.
Additional Information
The repairs and improvements proposed in this project are necessary to maintain a safe, efficient, and
equitable transit environment in one of the fastest-growing regions in Texas.
