The Riverside County Transportation Commission’s (RCTC) new, 3,200-square-foot Security Operations Control Center at the Joseph Tavaglione Riverside – Downtown Station houses full-time security staff who are overseeing the operations of the Southern California Regional Rail Authority’s Metrolink system in Riverside County. As part of an on-call rail operations contract with RCTC, STV provided design services for the facility, including architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing design. Working within a constrained area, STV provided engineering design for exterior civil work, including a retaining wall and the redesign of an adjacent parking lot section and ADA-compliant walkways.
The completed facility includes a security room with CCTV monitors, a server room and training facilities. The facility also features layover space for Metrolink crews.
