Circular Bus Stop Shade Covers Pilot Project

About the Project

In August 2024, Circular San Antonio was awarded a grant from the City of San Antonio Office of Sustainability’s Community Action Fund to pursue a circular bus stop shade cover pilot project.

Circular San Antonio will work with VIA, local community organizations, schools, architects, and artists to design the open source base structure using locally reclaimed and recycled materials. By making this design publicly available as an open source document, it will encourage the use of this model locally and beyond.
