The Regional Connector project for LACMTA added just under two miles of new underground rail and three new stations in downtown Los Angeles. The new section allows Metro light-rail vehicles to travel between Union Station and the 7th Street/Metro Center Station, connecting the previously separate Metro A, E, and L lines. The new configuration provides riders with a seamless, one-seat journey, from as far as Azusa to Long Beach and from East L.A. to Santa Monica with no transfers required.
B&C Transit Inc. was responsible for train control system design and detailed equipment books of plans. B&C Transit Inc. then procured all system equipment, installed it in our manufacturing facility in Livermore, California, and then performed system configuration and factory testing prior to the equipment being shipped to the final location in the field. Once the equipment was installed, B&C Transit Inc. led field and integration testing and implemented the final cutover connections from the existing configuration to the new connector.
