THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

MTA let a $3.78M construction contract to Bison Rail Systems, a certified MBE, to reconstruct two Light Rail grade crossings at Maple and Twin Oaks Roads in Anne Arundel County. Work includes new concrete track, storm drains, MSE wall, signals, asphalt, and a 33‑day service suspension with a bus bridge. Rail suppliers and subcontractors can still approach Bison for specialized materials, systems, and labor, and this package indicates more state‑of‑good‑repair work on the Light Rail system is likely.

Background

80% Federal; includes 33‑day service shutdown and bus bridge; no DBE goal due to USDOT interim rule.
