On Saturday, April 13, 2024 the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) awarded Gannett Fleming’s entry - MTA New York City Transit Livonia Avenue Station Mobility Project - Platinum Award in the transportation category. Citnalta was the lead of the Citnalta-TAP JV that included Gannett Fleming as the designer.
The scope of work involved providing full ADA accessibility at the station, including installing two MRL traction elevators, new complaint stairs, ADA paths of ingress and egress, and an above-track pedestrian overpass which will be tied to Junius St. Station on the 3 Line under a future contract.
To facilitate the installation of the new elevators and the expanded control area, the CTJV demolished the existing back-of-house space and relocated NYCT’s station department to a temporary facility for the duration of construction. The new back-of-house spaces were designed and constructed and consisted of a new EMR room, Verizon room, electrical distribution room, and various station facilities rooms such as employee toilets, locker room, ejector/cleaners’ room, and storage rooms.
Citnalta thanks the entire team for their hard work and efforts in completing this project!
