Plans for a new bus and transportation operations and maintenance facility on North Campus moved forward with the Board of Regents approving the schematic design for the new building Feb. 20.
The $39 million project will accommodate current and future maintenance space needs, including the flexibility to handle larger, articulated buses and vehicles, and infrastructure to charge electric vehicles.
The approximately 70,000-square-foot building will be located near Dean Road between Baxter and Hubbard roads, relocating from Kipke Drive on the Stephen M. Ross Athletic Campus. The site previously housed the University Laundry Building that served patient care facilities at Michigan Medicine. That building will be demolished.
