The Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation today announced it has awarded a $38.8 million contract to AECOM Technical Services to design the airport section of rail project’s elevated guideway.
That section from Aloha Stadium to the Middle Street Transit Center in Kalihi is 5.2 miles long. The design work is to be completed by Spring 2013, according to a news release.
“With construction already underway along the first half of the rail route, the design contract for the airport portion of the rail guideway will keep us on schedule in building the entire rail system in a timely manner,” Toru Hamayasu said in the release.
