Granite (NYSE: GVA) announced the commencement of the
approximately $45 million Atlantic Base Refurbishment (ABR) project
in Seattle, Washington. This comprehensive initiative aims to
modernize and enhance the infrastructure of King County Metro’s
(KCM) six-acre trolley bus parking and maintenance facility.
“The General Contractor/Construction Manager (GC/CM) project
delivery method chosen by KCM has facilitated a collaborative
environment, enabling all project stakeholders to work together
effectively,” said Mike Stein, Granite Vice President of Regional
Operations. “This partnership has successfully reached the Maximum
Allowable Construction Cost (MACC) milestone, marking the
transition from pre-construction to the construction phase.”
This project will replace all concrete paving and underground
infrastructure, including storm drainage, sanitary sewer,
industrial waste, and buried power lines, as well as rehabilitating
underground storage tanks. Additionally, the existing overhead
catenary system will be upgraded to support KCM’s expanding
electric trolley fleet.
The ABR project will be executed in multiple phases to ensure
the uninterrupted operation of KCM’s Atlantic Base. This initiative
is a significant step towards Granite’s sustainability goals,
aligning with KCM’s commitment to transitioning to a zero-emissions
fleet by 2035. This transition will significantly reduce reliance
on fossil fuels and position KCM as one of the first large transit
agencies in North America to achieve a fully zero-emissions
fleet.
The project is expected to begin in January 2025 and be
completed in March 2027.
