NYSE, TSX:STN
Stantec, a global leader in sustainable design and engineering,
has been selected to design the California High-Speed Rail
Authority’s extension from Merced to Madera, a key section between
Los Angeles and San Francisco. The extension covers 33.9 miles and
will include 40 structures. The Merced to Madera design contract is
valued at US$41 million, which is expected to be delivered over
about two years.
Stantec will finalize the project configuration footprint,
advance design work to refine costs and travel-time enhancements,
and map right-of-way needs and utility relocations. The Merced to
Madera section is the key junction that will connect the
500-mile-long project between the Bay Area and Los Angeles.
“The California High-Speed Rail Authority has embraced a goal of
guiding the evolution of California’s transportation infrastructure
into a vibrant, dynamic system that not only achieves an attractive
mode of transportation for our communities but serves as an
important economic driver within California,” said Jose de Jesus
Martinez, Stantec’s project/contract manager. “We are proud to be
part of a better and more sustainable transportation future for
California.”
The project will be partially funded by US$25 million in federal
funding from the U.S. Department of Transportation under the
Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity
(RAISE) discretionary grant program.
“High-speed rail is going to improve the transportation
landscape in California, with the potential to impact
transportation on a national level,” said Brian Norris, Stantec’s
transportation business line leader. “We see the future of
transportation as clean, green, and better designed for passengers
and communities. California High-Speed Rail is a significant step
in the right direction.”
Stantec has worked with California High-Speed Rail for eight
years, including as project/construction manager on Construction
Package 2-3. For this project, Stantec will lead a team of local,
international, Small Business Enterprise, Disadvantaged Business
Enterprise, and Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise firms.
