The Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation has awarded a $38.8 million contract with AECOM Technical Services, Inc. to design the rail transit project’s airport section of the elevated rail guideway.
The company will be responsible for the design of the 5.2-mile portion of the rail guideway from Aloha Stadium to the Middle Street Transit Center in Kalihi, and is required to finish the design work by Spring 2013.
"With construction already underway along the first half of the rail route, the design contract for the airport portion of the rail guideway will keep us on schedule in building the entire rail system in a timely manner, said Tory Hamayasu, HART’s interim executive director and CEO.
The 20-mil rail transit system from East Kapolei to Ala Moana is expected to open in 2019.
