As part of an annual effort to refurbish and replace GOVA Transit shelters, the city is slated to replace or refurbish 12 bus shelters this year.

The average cost of a new or refurbished shelter is approximately $8,300, while the replacement cost of a concrete pad is $8,900.Meanwhile, the city clarified that GOVA regularly maintains shelters and are all being cleaned beginning now, through the summer.
