Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) Pawtucket/Central Falls Commuter Rail Station and Bus Hub

Project Overview

Rhode Island Department of Transportation is creating a new station along the Providence line. This new station in Pawtucket, RI will be along the Amtrak Main line of the Northeast Corridor and will have an inbound and outbound platforms, pedestrian walkway, and vertical circulation. The Pawtucket/Central Falls Commuter Rail Station and Bus Hub is the culmination of more than a decade of work from a collaboration of state and local officials, transit, bus transit, and railroad stakeholders. It will fulfill a need for commuters traveling to Boston in the north and to Providence, T.F. Green and Wickford in the south. The station will also provide a seamless intermodal connection between MBTA commuter rail service and RIPTA local bus service.

Envision is providing PMOC support services for the FTA which include a project management plan review, a quality assurance/quality control review, periodic on-site visits, cost schedule characterization reviews, value engineering, a capital cost estimate review, project schedule reviews, a Buy America Review, risk and contingency reviews, a work order level implementation plan and PMOC Status Reports. The estimated cost for this project is $47 million with more than 20 percent coming from state and local funds.
