It’s been at least a decade in the making but the Hamilton Transport Centre is brighter and more welcoming.
Officially opened on Wednesday morning the infrastructure, which opened in 2001, has been a hot spot of antisocial behaviour, including after school fights.
Hamilton City Council urban transport manager Martin Parkes hopes the refurbishment stops that. The main building has been lightened and brightened.
“We’ve changed our glass, particularly at the lower level, so there’s more natural light coming into the space now. We’ve improved the CCTV, so we can monitor the space better.”
There’s also three electronic screens which give live timetable information.
