Trinity Metro last week named Huitt-Zollars and TranSystems as the final design consultants for its TEXRail extension project in Fort Worth, Texas.

The $167 million project includes a 2.1-mile commuter-rail extension from the Fort Worth T&P Station to a new Near Southside Station located in the Fort Worth Medical District.

In addition to the rail extension, the project includes the design of the new Near Southside Station with a 100-space park-and-ride lot. Construction will begin in 2024.

The Huitt-Zollars and TranSystems partnership was created specifically to support Trinity Metro for the TEXRail Extension, said Huitt-Zollars Vice President David Campbell in a press release.

"We’ve got a great team in place and complement each other in services we provide to bring these projects to fruition," Campbell said. "Over the years, Huitt-Zollars and TranSystems have been integral to TEXRail projects, such as the commuter rail line’s maintenance facility and the initial TEXRail line from downtown Fort Worth to the Airport."
