East Contra Costa BART Extension Project Underway

January 22, 2016

Amoroso and JV partner began construction of the East Contra Costa BART Extension Project in August 2014. This 10-mile rail extension from the Pittsburg-Bay Point BART station to Antioch is set to open in Spring 2018.

The project will use independently propelled railcars know as Diesel Multiple Units (DMUs). The DMU train was chosen to bring BART-quality rail service to East County at a much lower cost than conventional BART.

"I have not found any contractors except S. J. Amoroso that from the start and consistently throughout the project, to be so completely collaborative by steadily suggesting solutions whenever difficulties arose without getting mired in who was responsible for creating the difficulty before working on a solution." Charles Wren, PMP, LEED AP, Deputy Program Manager ~ Los Angeles Community College District
