Renaissance Centre to host Wednesday's Wake Forest Mobility Hub Study Open House

As part of the S-Line Project, the NC Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is studying design options for mobility hubs in several communities, including Wake Forest.

A mobility hub is a place of connectivity with regional and local multimodal transportation options, providing integrated facilities, amenities, technologies, and services. These hubs offer choices to get users where they need to go, making it easier to transfer from one form of travel, such as walking or biking, to another, such as carpooling or using a bus or shuttle.

A mobility hub, including an Amtrak station, is proposed for downtown Wake Forest on the site of the former historic freight and passenger rail depot. Details such as space needs, site design, environmental impacts, and accessibility will be analyzed as part of the study.

Community members are invited to join NCDOT’s project team to discuss plans for the Wake Forest Mobility Hub during a drop-in open house on Wednesday, June 12, from 5:30-8:30 p.m. at the Wake Forest Renaissance Centre, 405 S. Brooks St. The session will have an informal, open house-style format, so attendees may drop in anytime between 5:30 and 8:30 p.m. to discuss the Town’s mobility needs, the preferred site for the mobility hub, economic development opportunities, and share their vision and concerns related to the mobility hub.
