Washington Terminal Yard Master Plan

To better support increasing passenger volume from three different commuter rail agencies utilizing the site, Amtrak selected STV to renovate and expand Washington Terminal Yard. This facility is the primary running maintenance location for the Northeast Corridor fleet of electric locomotive and Amfleet coaches.

As part of this two-phase program, STV served as master planner guiding design and construction efforts. In addition to planning, STV conducted a comprehensive study of the existing layover/maintenance facility and service operations and developed plans to address projected increases in the number and frequency of train movements, train lengths, and layover and servicing requirements.
