The Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority (GCRTA) will hold a ceremony to commemorate the groundbreaking of its East 79th Blue and Green Line Station reconstruction project on July 11, 2025, from 1:30pm to 3:00pm.
The E. 79th Street Blue and Green Line Station was built in the early 1980’s and serves GCRTA’s light rail system on the east side of the City of Cleveland, located between Opportunity Corridor and Kinsman Road.
Primary goals of the project include rehabilitation of the station, bringing it into compliance with current ADA standards, improvement of connections into the neighborhood and increased Transit Oriented Development opportunities for the future.
This station reconstruction project is funded by an $8M Grant through the All Stations Accessibility Program (ASAP) and with an additional $2M from GCRTA.
