When you’re upgrading or expanding your intermodal or automotive terminal or building a new site, we are a single source of engineering and management services for railway design and construction projects throughout the U.S. Our rail team has longstanding relationships performing intermodal services with BNSF Railway Co., Union Pacific Railroad, CSX Intermodal, CPKC and inland ports. We have automotive engineering experience with BNSF and Total Distribution Services, Inc., an affiliate of CSX.
Intermodal design and construction support require extensive knowledge, and you can trust our experience with new-terminal design, as well as expansion and rehabilitation of existing terminals. Terminal design or expansion starts with concept planning to achieve the optimal balance of working track length, container stacking, wheeled parking and support facilities. Our experience includes terminals using different types of lift equipment, from rail-mounted, wide-span gantry cranes, rubber-tired gantry (RTG) cranes, marine-style RTG cranes and sideloaders/reach stackers.
We also have extensive experience coordinating intermodal terminal design with technology providers for automated gate systems, inventory control systems, site communication systems and site security cameras and equipment.
Intermodal and automotive projects often require a multidisciplined design approach. Our team brings these skills with a comprehensive knowledge of yard track design and reconfiguration; lead track design and extensions; pavement design; structural design; stormwater design; surveying services; geotechnical services; environmental services; and permitting, electrical design and mechanical design.
You can count on us for comprehensive intermodal and automotive facility services from start to finish, including:
“I have always enjoyed being a trusted adviser to railways to engineer their infrastructure expansions and manage their assets. It is so rewarding to lead teams of engineering professionals, invested as employee-owners, as extensions of our railway clients’ staff to deliver projects.”
