This award combines discretionary funding from FY 2017 5339(b) and FY2018 5339(b) to support the reconstruction of the Coolidge Terminal and Maintenance Facility; D2018-BUSC-058 and D2018-BUSC-179. Funding from these awards will support architecture and engineering work to design the new facility, including all design studies and documentation required for the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process.

This project is required to return the Coolidge Terminal to a state of good repair. Coolidge has not been an active terminal or maintenance facility since a December 2011 fire rendered the facility inoperable. Originally constructed in 1928, the facility is currently 93 years old.

Funding in this award includes:

FY2017 5339(b): Total funding of $4,500,000, including $3,600,000 in FTA funding and $900,000 in state match funding provided by the State of Michigan's Comprehensive Transportation Fund (CTF). TIP job number 212369.

FY2018 5339(b): Total funding of $11,920,048, including $9,536,038 in FTA funding and $2,384,010 in state match funding provided by the CTF. TIP JN 212369.

Attachments to this award include the FY2017 and FY2018 5339(b) application supplemental forms, an approved TIP, and long-range plan.

The purpose of this award is to reconstruct the Coolidge Terminal to provide a facility for DDOT bus operations, maintenance, and support functions, as well as bus storage. Coolidge will provide space for DDOT to grow its fleet and expand service.

Activities to be performed include the development of programmatic elements and conceptual design of the site, investigation of the existing site conditions, and conducting an environmental impact analysis. With the addition of a construction manager, construction cost estimates will be developed to verify conceptual designs.

The expected outcome is to define the functional requirements and space needs that will serve as the basis for the design of the Coolidge Terminal facility reconstruction.

The Coolidge Terminal facility reconstruction would benefit DDOT with improved maintenance practices and allow for bus fleet expansion. It will also improve the system condition and service, and enhance access and mobility within DDOT's service area.
