Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center
United States
The Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center (ARTIC) is a transit center in Anaheim, California, United States. The intermodal hub serves as a train station for Amtrak intercity rail and Metrolink commuter rail, as well as a bus station used by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), Anaheim Resort Transportation (ART), Greyhound, Megabus, Flixbus and Tres Estrellas de Oro. ARTIC opened in 2014 and replaced Anaheim–Stadium station, a nearby depot and train platforms used by Amtrak and Metrolink that first opened in 1984. Designed by the global architecture firm HOK, the steel-framed ARTIC building's entrance is a 120-foot-tall (37 m) glass wall. The structure has a compound curved shell that is covered with air-filled plastic pillows through which sunlight illuminates the interior. The arched roof is illuminated with multicolored lights visible from the surrounding area. ARTIC is located in the Platinum Triangle and near the Anaheim Resort, areas of Anaheim which include major points of interest. It is accessible by bicycle from the Santa Ana River Trail and is adjacent to California State Route 57.
ARTIC was planned to be part of the redevelopment of the surrounding area with transit oriented development in the Platinum Triangle. As of 2019, the station was within 25 miles (40 km) of a population of 7,704,578 residents and 50 miles (80 km) of a population of 15,056,614 residents. In 2022, the city council approved OC Vibe which will build a parking structure for the station on the other side of Douglass Road as the current parking area is included in the proposed mixed-use entertainment district around the Honda Center. Funding was approved in 2023 for an elevated pedestrian pathway that will include a bridge over Katella Avenue. The 16-acre (6.5 ha) site is near two freeways: State Route 57, and Interstate 5. The Honda Center is across Katella Avenue on the north side of the site and one of the three gates to Angel Stadium can be reached southwesterly through the Douglass Road underpass. The station has direct access to the Santa Ana River Trail and bicycle racks and lockers. This Metrolink Station also links Disneyland Resort through Anah
