MTA Metro-North Railroad has received the Greater New York Construction User Council’s 2011 Top Project honor in the infrastructure category for its Hudson Line Station Improvement Project at the Philipse Manor, Scarborough, and Ossining stations.
The just-completed, $89 million project included new inbound and outbound platforms, canopies, and shelters at all three stations, along with rehabilitation of the existing overpass at Philipse Manor; construction of a new overpass at Scarborough; and new elevators, stairs, and parking, along with a rebuilt elevated walkway, at Ossining. Permanent artwork was installed at all three stations under the auspices of the MTA Arts for Transit program.
Metro-North oversees 795 miles of track and infrastructure and operates more than 730 trains each weekday, serving 120 stations in Manhattan, Bronx, Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess, Orange, and Rockland counties in New York, and Fairfield and New Haven counties in Connecticut. |
