Project Description
Sound Transit identified a need for a track and signals design consultant to revise the initial preliminary engineering of the Sounder Commuter Rail Lakewood to Tacoma Design Project. There were various key elements included in this project such as the signal design for train control and grade crossings as well as roadway crossing designs necessary for new crossings. In addition, many railroad track revisions required accommodations to the commuter and freight rail joint operation.
