Project Management Oversight (PMO) Capital Projects

This project will fund the rehabilitation of the 111th Street / Pullman Station on the Metra Electric District Line in Chicago. The project elements may include the replacement and/or rehabilitation ofstation platforms, new lighting, gatehouse/head house rehabilitation, replacement of leaking roofs, installation of new warming shelters, new platform amenities, and other related work. The project mayalso include wayfinding signage or other station identifiers.

Pace will purchase 40FT CNG Buses.

North Main Line - RPM The purpose of the Red and Purple Modernization (RPM) Program is to expand capacity to meet growing ridership demand; reduce travel times; improve access to job markets and destinations; better utilize existing transit infrastructure; bring the existing infrastructure to a state of good repair; and improve access to the system for patrons with disabilities. FY2021-2025 funds will continue RPM Phase One funding stream.Red Purple Modernization phase one project consists the following interrelated and concurrent projects, as defined in the environmental documents to be developed by the CTA:RED-PURPLE BYPASS PROJECT. This element would construct a fifth track bypass flyover immediately north of the CTA Belmont Station to separate northbound Brown Line trains that currently conflict with southbound Purple Line trains and both northbound and southbound Red Line trains. This project includes construction of a new fifth track bypass flyover and replacement or renovation of approximately 0.3 mile of associated mainline track.LAWRENCE TO BRYN MAWR MODERNIZATION PROJECT. This modernization project would replace 1.3 miles of the existing rail line from Leland Avenue on the south to approximately Ardmore Avenue on the north. This section of track includes four stations - Lawrence, Argyle, Berwyn, and Bryn Mawr. The project would expand and modernize these four stations. The project would also provide ADA access to transit customers with disabilities in a two-mile stretch of the north Red Line that currently does not have accessible stations.CORRIDOR SIGNAL IMPROVEMENTS. This project would improve the signal system and special trackwork generally between Belmont and Loyola stations. Improvements would occur within CTA's existing right-of-way. The scope of work includes planning, design, procurement, and installation of wayside equipment and special trackwork that are significantly past their useful lives. This project also includes improvements to existing special trackwork.CONTINUED INTERIM CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS. This project would improve track infrastructure conditions between Belmont Station and Linden Station in order to maintain service along existing rail lines. This work would take place within the CTA's existing right-of-way.

Platform canopies and escalators will be replaced at Irving Park station on the O'Hare Blue Line. This project will address safety and state of good repair needs by replacing the worn and damaged platformcanopies at this station. Platform canopies that are in a state of disrepair allow water infiltration, which can cause damage to additional building materials and equipment and pose a safety risk to bothcustomers and employees. The scope of work for the station canopies includes the demolition and replacement of deteriorated canopy corrugated metal roofs, and repair and modification of the supportingsteel structure. Furthermore, escalators will be replaced at Irving Park Station.

This project is a new contract awarded in September 2019 for a new five?yearindefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract for 30’ low floor diesel buses. Theminimum quantity to be purchased under this contract is 67 buses and the totalnumber of buses procured will not exceed the maximum amount of 164.

Maintenance Facilities Rehabilitation: Funding will be targeted at preventive maintenance projects at various CTA facilities systemwide. These projects will improve CTA's capacity to maintain stations and improve customer comfort and safety. CTA's Facilities department will identify stations for this targeted preventive maintenance work, driven by regular field audits performed by maintenance staff. Projects currently anticipated for this funding source may include leak remediation and grouting in stations; rehabilitation of CTA elevators and escalators (ADA); ceiling, roof or canopy repair / patching; lighting upgrades; painting and signage, among other items. This work will be performed by CTA maintenance forces with material procured as part of this project. Work will be conducted throughout the system and is considered routine preventive maintenance.

Computer Systems/Hardware & Software - Projects in 2021 include upgrades, licenses, and training for Hastus route-scheduling software, RideCheck ridership data software, ArcGIS software, and the Pace website. Procurement of digital screens for the interior of buses is also included.

Metra’s track renewal crew will rehabilitate dozens of miles of track along the Milwaukee District West (MD-W) Line in 2022. The project will be the most comprehensive investment in track conditions since Metra acquired the MD-W in 1987. Metra forces will Replace ties, clean or replace ballast, and replace switch components to provide smoother, faster, and safer track conditions. Metra partners with the Canadian Pacific Railroad to fund improvements to particular portions of the MD-W as freight train traffic degrade track conditions more rapidly than Metra trains.

This project consists of three phases. Phase A is for rail car motor replacement and was completed in October 2019. Phase B is for procurement and installation ofthe propulsion kits with the parts contract was executed, and kits were received. Work for this phase began in November 2019 and all 90 cars were completed inAugust 2020. Phase C is for the procurement of material contracts and installation. The contract was approved at the October 2020. The first delivery ofmaterial is expected to arrive in May 2021 and the overhaul is expected to take place in the first half of 2022.

This project continues Metra's ongoing locomotive rehabilitation program. It consists of the life-extending rebuild of F40 locomotives and the mid-life overhaul of MP36 locomotives. A locomotive rehabilitation is less expensive than a purchase, saving approximately $5 million per vehicle. The project may include, but is not limited to, the complete rebuild of a diesel engine, overhaul of the Head End power alternator and gear boxes, and painting and body repair.
