(Providence, RI)--State officials are no-longer planning a transit tunnel through Kennedy Plaza in downtown Providence.However, a new plan was revealed by the Rhode Island Department of Transportation and Rhode Island Public Transit Authority on Thursday: a trio of transit hubs, including two new ones at the Providence train station and at a vacant building on Dyer Street.One benefit would be to link train and bus transportation, and to make Kennedy Plaza more of a visitor destination.RIDOT hopes to have the project completed in a few years.
