Building Prototypical LayoutThe following sketch is indicative of the prototypical transit center building in downtownJuneau. Please note that this layout is a configuration that makes efficient use of arectangular shape and optimal interior circulation. It is likely that sites will need to varythis configuration to work best. Expect that circulation efficiency may not be this optimaland the shape of the building will likely be different.Figure 1-1 Prototypical Layout

Facility ConfigurationVarious configurations and arrangements of the transit center facility will likely beconsidered for each site. Operational routing of buses, parcel configuration(s) androadway layout at and near the site all influence the layout of the transit center. To helpin candidate site identification the following diagrams represent generic configurationsthat are useful references.On-Street SitesBuses alight in the parking lane of the road. Customers may need to cross the street.Buses are required to use existing roads for turn-back movements.Figure 1-2 On-Street – Mid BlockFigure 1-3 On-Street – Corner

Partial Off-Street SitesThese layouts are indicative of off-street sites. Buses circulate in a clockwise directionto alight at the transit center island. The transit center building is located in the heart ofthe island. The extent of vehicular pavement is dependent on the number of routes thatmust turn-back at the transit center but is generally significantly more than that requiredfor an on-street facility.Figure 1-4 Off-Street – Mid Block AFigure 1-5 Off-Street – Mid Block B

Corner lots at intersections may allow for turn-back operations or be on-street facilitiesdependent on surface streets for turn-back. Operational needs and traffic interface willgreatly influence the facility layout at intersections.Figure 1-6 Off-Street – Corner
