ADG initially conducted a feasibility study for the Volusia County Mass Transit Authority and (VOTRAN) and the Urban Mass Transit Authority (U.M.T.A.). This Phase I element considered the potential utilization of a parcel of land in downtown Daytona, Florida for the site of a county multi-modal transportation facility.
The complex is designed to accommodate future additional capacity of the site in relationship to a phased development. The authority operates a variety of vehicles and consideration was given to both varying vehicle size and operating characteristics. The site supports approximately 20 transit vehicles in addition to on-site employee parking and designated vehicle spaces for commercial taxi service.
The study concluded with a detailed construction cost estimate to ensure that the design could be constructed within the budgetary limitations established by the client and with the funding levels mandated by UMTA, resulting in a successful grant award for the complex. The complex was subsequently constructed and has been the recipient of a State of Florida Design Arts Award.
