What is the JRTC?

JTA’s vision of a regional multi-modal hub is coming to a reality with the Jacksonville Regional Transportation Center (JRTC). The JRTC will be a multi-modal hub, located in the heart of the Downtown LaVilla area, that will integrate key local, regional and intercity service in one location.
