Project Description

This new bus maintenance facility in Quincy is replacing the MBTA’s existing bus maintenance facility, the oldest in the MBTA system.

The existing facility lacked the technology and space to support the new Battery Electric Buses (BEB’s) that the MBTA is instituting to lessen the environmental impact. The new facility will be 350,000 sf and consist of four interconnected structures for the storage and maintenance of 120 buses with 11 service/maintenance bays, and offices. Specialty MEP and building communications systems infrastructure are required, as well as unique building equipment and restrooms, locker rooms, and vertical transportation.

During the design phase, HDR | City Point Partners provided cost estimating, scheduling, and public outreach services. During the construction phase, we are reviewing the contractor’s monthly schedule updates and coordinating and scheduling the testing and commissioning activities as an on-site office engineer.
