Silverdale Transit Center
connecting communities to amenities and promoting ridership through design
Schemata Workshop led the architectural design for an eight-bay bus transit center in Silverdale, a designated Regional Growth Center, and the expansion of Harrison Medical Center. The design includes eight bus bays, shelters for riders, vehicle parking, bike lanes, bike storage, and a bus driver comfort station. Sidewalks and paths surrounding the transit center are planted with an assortment of edible plants. The facility features Washington’s first wireless in-ground bus charging system to support Kitsap Transit’s electric buses. As a gateway to SR 303 and into town, the canopy’s elegant design signals the county’s emphasis on public transit. The low profile and wide span of the shelter create a graceful panorama, while the steel and concrete structure is softened by the warm tone of exposed wood soffits, resulting in a welcoming and low-maintenance design.
