About

Opened in 2012, the John W. Olver Transit Center was the first net zero transit centre in the United States. Since its completion, the 24,000ft2 intermodal transit hub, spearheaded by former Congressman John W. Olver and funded with the help of a stimulus grant from the former Obama administration, has helped breathe new life into Franklin County and further strengthened the regional transit network.
