The Kentucky Transpark, an environmentally friendly and attractive, high-tech commerce and business park, is located on U.S. 31-W and Highway 68/80 on the north side of Bowling Green. This mixed use, south central Kentucky development is centrally located, within 600 miles of 43% of the U.S. population and less than a mile from Interstate 65, the busiest north/south corridor. With additional access to rail transportation and a state-of-the-art communications infrastructure, the Transpark will facilitate the “Just in Time” needs found in many of today’s businesses.

The need to protect the environment continues to be a major focus of the Transpark development. Extensive design reviews and design characteristics that exceed the state and federal environmental standards have and are continuing to be conducted. A state-of-the-art storm water separator system will be installed in the park where potential sources of storm water runoff will be treated through a mechanical system and dispensed to lined retention basins for aesthetics as well as irrigation. The Transpark is also designated as a “No Idle” development and will require occupants of the park to use one of the technologies recommended by the EPA for reducing long-duration truck idling.

With a campus-like setting, the Transpark will have both bike and walking trails along with green space and water features throughout the park. The Restrictive Covenants and Binding Elements of the park have designed landscaping, lighting, signage and other features that exceed current requirements of Warren County Subdivision Regulations, the Warren County Comprehensive Plan and the Greenbelt Master Plan.

In cooperation with the Kentucky Community & Technical College System and Western Kentucky University, the Transpark will also feature onsite educational and research centers. These facilities will provide customized workforce training and specialized services to meet the needs of, not only Transpark tenants, but newly created, existing, or expanding regional businesses as well. A 25,000 square foot training facility is planned for future construction at the Transpark.

The groundbreaking ceremony was held at the Kentucky TriModal Transpark on Monday, August 25, 2003. Federal, state and regional elected officials, local dignitaries and approximately 1,000 attendees were present for this historic event. Click here for more information.
