    The Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) has begun work on replacing 13 high-volume bus shelters on High Street through Downtown. The aluminum-and-glass design is a modern update, designed by students from CCAD.

    Several of the southbound shelters should be finished and functional in time for the May 5th launch of the new Downtown Circulator route. Other northbound shelters will be finished later in May or June.
