Design features
The transportation center incorporates a precast skin applied to the cast in place post-tensioned concrete parking decks, utilizing a combination of thin brick and colored panels for the exterior façade. These precast panels were installed such to provide visual aesthetics and functionally to allow sufficient light and air flow into the facility. The bus facility and daycare were nested within the structure with some elements projecting out at ground level to help create a more human scale for pedestrians. The parking functions were pulled away from the sidewalk edge to contribute to the pedestrian friendly experience while also minimizing the impact of the five-story structure.
Transit service connectivity
The Court Street Transportation Center is serviced by Iowa City Transit by one outbound (#7002) and two inbound (#7003 and #7004) bus stops. These stops are serviced Monday through Friday from 5:45 a.m. to 11:20 p.m. by three daytime routes (Lakeside, Mall, Free Shuttle) and two night routes (Lakeside and Night Broadway). This results in 120 buses servicing this location daily. On Saturdays, two routes (Lakeside and Saturday Broadway) provide service to these locations between the hours of 5:45 a.m. and 7:40 p.m. Each Saturday, 40 buses service these stops.
