GoTriangle continues toward its mission of “connecting people and the region with high quality transit” with the announcement of several route and service changes in early November that will enhance reliability and increase transit options for riders throughout the Triangle. These changes include hourly weekday service on Route ZWX connecting Wendell and Zebulon to Downtown Raleigh, as well as all-day Route WRX service from Wake Forest to Triangle Town Center and peak express trips between Wake Forest and Downtown Raleigh.

GoTriangle’s Vision statement is “To be our region’s trusted mobility partner.” In that vein, riders must trust that they will have safe and reliable transportation to get them to and from work, school or play. And bus operators must trust that they can safely do their jobs – while also being aware of the safety and security of their vehicle and riders.

Earlier this year, GoTriangle unveiled new Mission and Vision statements. The public transportation agency’s new Mission is: “Connecting people and the region with high-quality transit.” GoTriangle’s Vision is: “To be our region’s trusted mobility partner.” A key part in achieving both of those statements is by offering the region’s riders modern, safe and reliable vehicles.

Raleigh Union Station Bus Facility (“RUS Bus”), GoTriangle’s newly-opened transit hub located in the Warehouse District, has been named a recipient of the 2025 Imprint Award on behalf of the Downtown Raleigh Alliance. The Imprint Awards celebrate development projects that make a significant impact on Downtown Raleigh’s growth, design and vitality. GoTriangle was recognized with the Imprint Award at the State of Downtown Raleigh event on Thursday, August 28. 

GoTriangle will host a ribbon-cutting celebration for the new Raleigh Union Station Bus Facility (525 West Hargett Street in Raleigh) on Friday, July 25^th. The morning’s events will begin at 10 a.m. with special remarks, followed by the ribbon-cutting, tours of the new facility, giveaways, music, food trucks and more. The public is welcome to attend this event. 

Please note that bus service from the new bus station will begin on August 3.

Beginning August 4, GoTriangle will offer for the first time in the transit agency’s history bus service in 15-minute intervals along Routes 400 and 405 in Durham and Orange counties. 

GoTriangle regularly reviews its routes and services; however, these upgrades are a priority for both the Durham Transit Plan and the Orange Transit Plan and were made possible by the funding from half-cent sales taxes directed toward transit improvements.  

Some GoTriangle bus routes will change on August 3, 2025, to coincide with the opening of the new Raleigh Union Station Bus Facility on West Hargett Street – also known as “RUS Bus.” RUS Bus will result in expanded capacity to support continued investment in new and improved bus transit options for Raleigh and the region. Initially, four GoTriangle routes will be affected by its opening.
