Duluth Transportation Center (DTC) is a bus station in Duluth, Minnesota, served by urban transit, rural transit, and intercity buses. Duluth Transportation Center is the downtown hub for the Duluth transit system.
Urban transit routes at the center are operated by Duluth Transit Authority, the third-largest transit operator in Minnesota.[2][3] Regional rural transit is provided from the station by Arrowhead Transit. Intercity services are operated by Jefferson Lines.[1]
Duluth Transportation Center was built in February 2016,[1] replacing an existing parking ramp. The building was designed by LHB Architects and Engineers and LSA Design. Mortenson Construction was the contractor.[4][5] Construction cost $30 million.[1]
The center experienced a setback in 2015 when construction workers discovered a city storm sewer with a large hole that had been leaking for some time. The city authorized the site’s main contractor, Mortenson Construction, to repair the line, putting the storm sewer on pilings.[6]
