Projects

 We move people, and we are proud of it! Harbor Transit serves people from all walks of life, providing the essential service of transportation that enables our customers to do the things they need to do – access medical services, shop at the grocery store, visit friends and family, and so much more. Our dream is to serve more people in our community and adjoining communities. In order to do that, Harbor Transit is in the process of building a brand new, state-of-the-art Operations Facility. 

Two parcels comprising 30 acres have been purchased in Grand Haven Township for the New Operations Center. The Operations Center will be designed at 40,000 internal square feet, providing ample room for the elements necessary to modernize the system and enhance access and mobility for low-income and underserved communities by providing commuter access to the jobs in Harbor Transit’s Service Area. 

Harbor Transit has secured a consultant to begin the NEPA process on the new site, and an Architect and Engineering firm to provide preliminary design concepts. The New Operations Center will include more vehicle storage for the current fleet with room for expansion; sound-proofed dispatch offices; sufficient office space for current staff with room for future growth; waiting and transfer area for passengers wanting to connect to regional services; maintenance space with correctly-sized lifts and equipment; fueling station placed for efficient vehicle fueling, and sufficient storage space for vehicles and equipment. The increased vehicle storage at the New Operations Center will also allow Harbor Transit to provide additional demand-response services to persons with disabilities that live in the service area.
