Business Wire
AECOM (NYSE: ACM) the world’s trusted infrastructure consulting
firm, today announced AECOM and the Portal Connectors team, has
been selected by the Transbay Joint Powers Authority (TJPA) to
provide program management and construction management services for
the Downtown Rail Extension (DTX) project, also known as the
Portal. The tunneling and station megaproject will extend Caltrain
service from its current terminal at Fourth and King Streets to the
Salesforce Transit Center and accommodate future California
High-Speed Rail service. Once complete, the extension will serve as
a key regional rail connection with a combined average ridership
forecast of 90,000 daily riders connecting with 11 Bay area transit
systems.
“AECOM has been proud to support the TJPA since the inception of
the Transbay Program, and we’re thrilled to help deliver the next
phase of this transformative investment,” said Mark Southwell,
chief executive of AECOM’s global Transportation business. “Our
world class tunneling capabilities and fully integrated service
offerings address all aspects of large-scale tunnel projects,
making us well positioned to deliver this crucial work that will
serve as a lynchpin for the region’s long-term transit needs.”
Portal Connectors, a team led by AECOM, will be responsible for
implementing an operating model to successfully deliver an array of
program management and project supervision services in support of
the Portal. This includes effective execution of key activities
such as obtaining FTA funding, finalizing the procurement plan in
2024, activating collaborative delivery models, designing and
building the tunnel stations, and integrating The Portal with
existing rail systems and operations.
The 1.3-mile rail extension is expected to be constructed
principally below grade using cut-and-cover and mined tunneling
methods underneath Townsend and Second Streets. The project
includes an underground station at Fourth and Townsend Streets
along with the Salesforce Transit Center's basement levels, utility
relocation, track and systems work.
“Our capabilities across all forms of rail projects, from urban
transit to high-speed and regional rail, continue to make us a
trusted partner for our global clients seeking integrated rail
solutions,” said Drew Jeter, chief executive of AECOM’s Program
Management global business line. “We look forward to leveraging
these capabilities as we help deliver this multi-modal transit hub,
which will support transformative mobility and environmental
benefits for the Bay Area and beyond.”
The Portal is the second phase of the TJPA’s $12 billion
Transbay Program. The first phase replaced the former Transbay
Terminal in downtown San Francisco with the modern, multimodal
Salesforce Transit Center.
