Stories Related to Bangor Council Votes To Keep Public Bus Hub In Pickering Square

The Bangor City Council voted 5-4 Monday night to keep the city’s public bus hub in Pickering Square. That outcome should at least partially settle a long-running debate about whether the Community Connector’s terminal should remain in the square or whether its routes should converge somewhere else in the city. With the affirmative vote, city staff will now work to craft and construct a redesign of Pickering Square that moves the hub to the Water Street side of the square and separates it from the rest of the square with a landscaped buffer of vegetation.
