Preparing for Baltimore-Washington Maglev
Leaders from Baltimore-Washington Rapid Rail (BWRR), North America’s Building Trades Unions (NABTU) and the Baltimore/Washington building trades signed a Memorandum of Understanding Nov. 1 to use and develop a trained workforce for future Superconducting Maglev construction between Washington, DC, and Baltimore.
“This exciting partnership showcases a longstanding commitment to providing economic opportunity to Baltimore and the Northeast Corridor,” said BWRR Vice Chairman Jeff Hirschberg. “We look forward to utilizing the skilled labor NABTU provides, once construction on the project begins in the years ahead. Together, we will enhance the nation’s transportation system and create jobs throughout the Baltimore region and beyond.”
The unions that make up the building trades support the project and agree to provide a model Project Labor Agreement for BWRR’s contractors and subcontractors and their expertise and resources to obtain the necessary permits and financing needed for future construction.
