Critical to regional mobility, this project will increase capacity and rail operations on Metrolink's busiest commuter rail line.
Our team led the preliminary engineering and environmental clearance documents for approximately three miles of additional double track; addition of a second passenger platform at the existing Metrolink Rialto Station with consideration for a pedestrian grade separation; evaluation of station pedestrian access alternatives (overpass, underpass, or at-grade); a Quiet Zone Feasibility Study for ten at-grade crossings within and near the double track footprint; track modifications under UPRR bridge railroad signals, as well as Positive Train Control (PTC) improvements and considerations; and required civil improvements, including grading, drainage, and utilities. In addition, modifications to eight at-grade crossings with adjacent street/roadway and related traffic work within the project footprint will improve roadway profiles and improve local traffic.
