Bus services
The center serves as a hub for the SORTA during sporting events and other special events.
Rail service
The center serves as the central hub for the Cincinnati streetcar system, which opened to passengers on September 9, 2016.
Future rail connections
The center is also expected to serve as the central hub for the planned Eastern Corridor Commuter Rail connecting Cincinnati to Milford.
