About this award
The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) was awarded a $169.97 million Project Grant from the Federal Railroad Administration's Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail program (CFDA 20.326). The grant will fund replacement of approximately 215 catenary structures along the Hell Gate Line between milepost 8.5 and 16.6, bringing the existing catenary system assets into a state of good repair. This will increase reliability and resilience of the electrical traction system supporting Amtrak and freight rail intercity passenger services on the line. Replacing aging catenary structures will also reduce risks of future failures that could cause passenger delays. Work will be completed by June 2030. No sub-awards were specified.
