Join us for a Mixer and Presentation on the Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center (ARTIC). ARTIC will be a world class transportation center where people transfer between travel services to reach both regional and interregional activity and business centers.
ARTIC will combine a transportation gateway and mixed-use activity center on a 16-acre site owned by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and the City of Anaheim. ARTIC will serve as a hub for Orange County and the region, a landmark where freeways, major arterials, bus routes and Orange County's backbone rail transit system converge. The network of transit choices will continue to grow in the coming years as the number of Metrolink and Amtrak trains serving Anaheim and local and express bus routes increase. ARTIC will accommodate these services as well as plans for future high- speed trains and rapid connection services. Come hear about the ARTIC Project...one of the most exciting and architecturally significant projects to be built in our state!
