- W639779568 abstract "The New Orleans Regional Transit Authority (NORTA) provides public transit services for the greater New Orleans region. At present, the NORTA system includes three streetcar lines, 32 bus routes, and special Para-transit services for the disabled. The service covers 14,000 miles each day and services almost 12 million riders every year. The US Department of Transportation awarded a Transit Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER-I) grant of $45M to NORTA to expand their streetcar system adding the Loyola Avenue Streetcar Loop. The project measures just under one mile of double track service between the Union Passenger Terminal (UPT) down Loyola Avenue to Canal Street. The project opened for revenue service on January 28, 2013. This paper will explore the range of Project Management Oversight Contractor (PMOC) and Engineering/Construction Management (PM/CM) programmatic methods and solutions deployed at various project stages to successfully deliver this vital project. The core PMOC and PM/CM solutions discussed in this paper will be related to: program management oversight, system safety and security certification, design, construction, coordination with jurisdictional authorities, and implementation of unique engineering solutions to address critical project interfaces. New Orleans is a historic city with infrastructure dating back to the 1900s. Managing the interfaces between existing (historic) and new infrastructure presented a unique range of project challenges, requiring the integration of a blend of Program Management Oversight, Engineering and Construction, and project contractual solutions. In order to meet the public demand for safe, efficient, and cost effective mass transportation solutions, many municipalities are considering implementation of Modern Streetcar Systems; this trend is projected to increase as competition for limited federal funding also increases. This paper presents lessons learned with practical applications from the Loyola Avenue Streetcar Loop Project, which can be readily applied to other current or future transit programs. The objective is to ensure that public transit projects achieve the highest levels of safety, efficiency, and cost effectiveness for the dollars invested." @default.
