RTA upgrade in the City of Euclid

Newly dedicated RTA transit waiting environment in downtown Euclid

The newly opened Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (RTA) waiting area at the intersection of Lake Shore Boulevard, Babbitt Road and Bliss Lane is now official, with its dedication Sept. 29.

RTA chief executive officer and general manager Joe Calabrese, along with the city of Euclid mayor Bill Cervenik, brought the project to Euclid, thanks to a $50,000 grant from the Federal Transportation Administration (FTA) and its Transit Waiting Environment (TWE) Program.

The project is a prominent feature of the redevelopment of downtown Euclid, highlighted by a beautified waiting environment.

Bus routes 30 and 94 service the shelters. The upgrades include two new covered areas, seating, trash receptacles, landscaping and planters, along with additional electronic signage.
