NCTD to redevelop Oceanside Transit Center

The North County Transit District (NCTD) posted a request for proposals (RFP) to redevelop its Oceanside Transit Center in California into a mixed-use, transit-oriented development (TOD), real estate consultant CBRE Group Inc. announced yesterday.

NCTD’s Oceanside Transit Center is served by NCTD’s Coaster and Sprinter, Amtrak and Metrolink, connecting riders to San Diego and Los Angeles. 

The site consists of 19 contiguous parcels with a building capacity of over 650,000 square feet, and is located less than a mile from the Pacific Ocean.

The RFP calls for potential developers to submit bids to turn the 10-acre site into a higher density, mixed-used development that will expand transit ridership and draw more residents and visitors, CBRE officials said in a press release. 

The TOD will provide a revenue source to accommodate transit operations at the center and serve as NCTD’s administrative headquarters. 

Proposals are due April 15.
