The Oklahoma State University (OSU) is constructing a transit operations and maintenance facility (TOMF) to replace their current 52-year-old maintenance facility. The project site is located at the southeast quadrant of West Lakeview Avenue and North Western Road in Stillwater, Payne County, Oklahoma. The site is a 20-acre tract of land and consists of two primary areas: the existing transit station on the west side and a larger undeveloped portion on the east side.

This phased project, which is due to commence on Phase 2, will allow Oklahoma State University to consolidate their transportation services support personnel, equipment, and all related assets and functions to the new facility upon completion. This project will include constructing an approximate 75,000 sq. ft. operations and maintenance facility, which will have approximately 10-16 bays and parking for 100+ vehicles.

The transit operations and maintenance facility Phase 1 is currently being funded in multiple grants, which are as follows: OK-2019-003: FY2017 funds Section 5339(B): $2,400,000; OK-2018-023-01; FY2018 Section 5311: $800,000; FY2019 Section 5311: $800,000. Combined, these projects have a total local match of $1,000,000.

The transit operations and maintenance facility Phase 2 will be funded by the CARES Act grant: OK-2020-021.
