The Worcester Regional Transit Authority's new, vehicle maintenance, storage and operations facility, designed by transportation architecture and engineering firm, STV, features  high-efficiency mechanical and plumbing systems, stormwater management systems, vehicle washing reclamation system, and the provisions to enable the future installation of a photovoltaic system on the building’s roof. The $84 million, 150,000-square-foot facility is situated on a new 11-acre site, and replaces WRTA’s 1920s-era converted trolley barn while significantly increasing the agency’s storage/maintenance space for its vehicle fleet.
