Eltingville Transit Center is a park and ride transit center that is located in Eltingville, Staten Island. It is located at the intersection of Arthur Kill Road and Richmond Avenue, at the end of the Korean War Veterans Parkway. The transit center was completed in 2004. Amenities include schedules, maps, free parking, and vending machines for soda, snacks, and MetroCards. The center is halfway between the Eltingville Staten Island Railway station and the Staten Island Mall, another (de jure) transit center, including the adjacent Yukon Depot.
On December 12, 2022, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority announced that work would begin that week on a project to increase the number of spots at the center 34 percent from 437 to 586 spaces. The new spaces will be added to the west side of the existing parking lot. As part of the project, new lighting, a new curb, and new drainage systems will be installed. The project will cost $4.3 million and be completed in spring 2023.[2]
