Station construction bid: WSLS10
Amtrak accepting bids for Roanoke station
As of now, Amtrak is in the bidding phase of the project to select a contractor for the depot.
The station will be built off of Norfolk Avenue at the corner of Jefferson Street near the Martin Luther King Bridge in downtown Roanoke.
Roanoke City Council unanimously approved the plan back in March.
The new platform will support a nine-car Amtrak train that will run between Roanoke and Lynchburg.
