Sound Transit awards Washington-East LRT management contract

east-linkHill International has received a contract extension from Sound Transit for design-build project management services during the upcoming phase of the E360 Segment of the Seattle, Washington-based East Link Light Rail extension project.
Hill received its original contract from the regional transit system in January 2015 for Phase 1 services valued at USD 1 million for one year, officials say. The recent addition of Phase 2’s construction services is expected to offer Hill an estimated USD 19 million value throughout the next four years, indicating a total contract value of  USD 20 million.
The civil construction cost is estimated at USD 225 million with an expected completion date in late 2020. The E360 Segment of the extension is 3 km in length and includes aerial guideway, at-grade and retained cut sections, and features two new platform stations. The extension is also set to feature two pedestrian bridges and a 300-vehicle capacity parking garage.
