EXP, a global engineering, architecture, design and consulting firm recognized for its experience in complex infrastructure, has joined AtkinsRéalis (delivery partner for the project) to deliver engineering services for the Calgary Green Line LRT. The project is the largest infrastructure investment in Calgary’s history.
EXP will provide services for Phase I of the Green Line LRT project, which includes the SE Segment and the Downtown Segment. In total, Phase I will deliver 17.2 kilometers of twin-track LRT infrastructure, 12 new stations, 3 Park and Ride lots, 1 maintenance and storage facility and 28 new modern low-floor light rail vehicles. The SE Segment, from Shepard to the future Event Centre/Grand Central Station, will build the first 10 stations and 16 kilometers before connecting with the future Downtown Segment and into the existing Red and Blue LRT Lines. Work is underway to assess potential options for the Downtown Segment, with an update to Council expected in September.
Once complete, the Green Line will connect communities, encourage development and be an important aspect of Calgary’s public transportation system.
“Complex LRT projects require local, dedicated and experienced teams. The Green Line will be instrumental in shaping Calgary’s future, and our team is committed to addressing the specific needs of the client, the project and the communities it serves,” EXP’s Vice President, Transportation and Business Development Leader Iain Ward said.
EXP has an established and growing presence throughout Alberta. EXP has played a significant role in enhancing Alberta’s infrastructure, including contributing local expertise to brownfield redevelopment, commercial and residential and large-scale transportation projects.
