WMATA Station Platform Rehabilitation Program Phase 4 – Awarded WMATA Project

Vinmart Global Infrastructure Co. was awarded a contract to provide Design-Build services to deliver Phase 4 of the WMATA Platform Rehabilitation Program.

WMATA STATION PLATFORM REHABILITATION PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The Metro system has 45 outdoor rail stations constructed with concrete platforms over four decades ago. Over the years, many of the platforms have begun to deteriorate due to routine wear and tear combined with exposure to weather and de-icing agents. The Station Rehabilitation Program includes the repair and reconstruction of over 20 station platforms in multiple phases.

  • Phases 1 and 2: Vinmart Global completed this project, which included the rehab of six Blue/Yellow Line stations and four Orange/Silver Line stations in Virginia.
  • Phase 3: Vinmart Global was awarded the contract to repair and reconstruct six Green and Blue Line stations, mainly in Maryland: Greenbelt, College Park, Prince George’s Plaza, West Hyattsville, Addison Rd., and Arlington Cemetery.
  • Phase 4 (Awarded to Vinmart Global Summer 2021): involves the rehabilitation of five (5) stations located along the Orange Line in Maryland – New Carrollton, Landover, Cheverly, Deanwood & Minnesota Ave Metrorail (Construction scheduled for Summer 2022)

As the station platforms are reconstructed, Metro is using the shutdown time to make improvements that enhance the customer experience with a higher level of safety, convenience and communication.
