The Fort Worth Transportation Authority’s Board of Directors approved several contracts related to TEX Rail. It authorized a contract with Archer Western/Herzog Joint Venture (JV) for Pre-Construction Services to work closely with the project’s Design Team in order to achieve a more efficient and cost-effective design that has been planned and coordinated with TEX Rail’s various stakeholders.
It also authorized a contract with Stadler Bussnang AG for the purchase of eight Diesel Multiple Unit rail vehicles. Once the order has been provided, vehicle assembly will take place in North Texas.
The TEX Rail commuter rail will run on a 27-mile corridor from downtown Fort Worth, northeast across Tarrant County to Grapevine and into Terminal B at DFW Airport.
