The Building

Construction on the center by Valley Transit began on September 12, 1989, and service began on March 1, 1990. It was the first transit center built in Appleton. It has climate controlled waiting rooms, public washrooms, a payphone and free direct line telephones to Valley Transit, and vending machines. The north side of the building is the location of the Greyhound Lines office. Additional benches are outside, where there are designated bus boarding bays in a traffic-free transfer area, and the entire grounds, inside and out, are non-smoking.

The northwest corner of the property is the boarding place for Greyhound buses, travelling between Green Bay, Wisconsin and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The center also sees service from Lamers Bus Lines.
