Release from the City of Barrie
The City is seeking feedback on public art themes to be considered for the future Allandale Transit Mobility Hub.
The Allandale Transit Mobility Hub will be located within Barrie's Allandale area to centrally locate an inter-regional transit hub next to an existing rail corridor. Once complete, this hub will host seamless transit services and connections between Simcoe County, Muskoka and the Greater Toronto Area.
Opportunities for public art may be considered at various locations within the future site, including the exterior of the main building, interior waiting area of the main building and exterior publicly accessible plaza.
The City is seeking feedback on public art themes and functionality that should be considered. Results will help inform the design and selection of public art features to be incorporated within the site.
The public can provide their feedback through the City’s online public engagement platform by completing a survey or submitting ideas or photos of artwork on other transit systems as examples of what they would like to see in Barrie. Feedback will be accepted until February 16, 2023.
Feedback can be provided via buildingbarrie.ca/MobilityHub. For more information on the Allandale Transit Mobility Hub, visit barrie.ca/TransitHubsProject.
