WMATA | Design-Build for Orange and Blue Line Rail System, Stadium Armory to National Airport
SYSTRA served as the Lead Designer on this design-build project, which entailed the rehabilitation of WMATA’s Orange and Blue Line Rail System from Stadium Armory Station in the District of Columbia to National Airport Station in Virginia.
The goal was to enhance the Metro’s ability to keep the system in a state of good repair, minimize disruptions to ridership and increase system productivity while reducing system operating expenses. Work included areas of complete structural platform replacement as well as upgrades to station aesthetics, including new finishes and signage to improve customer safety, accessibility and wayfinding.
