Sobre el ProyectoEl proyecto de cinco millas de la Extensión Sur Central del Tren Ligero se conectará con el sistema del tren ligero actual en el centro de la ciudad de Phoenix y operará hacia el sur a Baseline Road.
En enero de 2016, el Concilio de la Ciudad de Phoenix aprobó adelantar la fecha de inauguración de la Extensión Sur Central del Tren Ligero, de 2034 a 2023. El adelanto es financiado a través de Transporte 2050, un plan de transporte de múltiples modos a 35 años aprobado por los votantes de Phoenix en agosto de 2015.
El Corredor Sur Central es una de siete áreas de proyectos identificadas por el Departamento de Transporte de los Estados Unidos para ser incluidas en su programa piloto de empoderamiento de oportunidades de transporte “Ladders of Opportunity Transportation Empowerment Pilot” (LadderSTEP). El objetivo del programa Piloto LadderSTEP es el de construir y restaurar conexiones, desarrollar la capacidad de la fuerza laboral, y catalizar la revitalización de los vecindarios a través de proyectos planeados de transporte.
ESTATUS DEL PROYECTO
SIGUIENTES PASOS
• Después de la aprobación medioambiental por la Administración Federal de Transporte a principios de 2017, el proyecto está ahora en su fase inicial de diseño.
• En abril de 2017, el Concilio de la Ciudad de Phoenix aprobó un acuerdo de $50 millones de dólares para financiar el diseño final y los planes de pre-construcción del Proyecto de la Extensión Sur Central del Tren Ligero.
• En septiembre de 2017, el Concilio de la Ciudad de Phoenix aprobó la creación de un centro de transferencias para permitir conexiones convenientes con la Extensión Sur Central y líneas futuras del tren ligero. El centro incluirá dos estaciones nuevas entre Central Avenue y First Avenue en Jefferson Street y Washington Street, y una estación en Central Avenue entre Washington y Jefferson.
• La Mesa Directiva de Valley Metro aprobó la selección de AECOM como el equipo de diseño del proyecto en mayo de 2017, a Kiewit como la compañía contratista para la construcción del proyecto (Administrador Responsable de la Construcción “Construction Manager at Risk”) en junio de 2017, y a 14 artistas para el proyecto en agosto de 2017.
La ciudad de Phoenix, en colaboración con Valley Metro, lanzará un programa de acción temprana de asistencia para los negocios en la primavera de 2018. El programa proveerá recursos adicionales a los negocios, a fin de ayudarlos para que continúen teniendo éxito durante la construcción.
Los estudios topográficos continuarán hasta a principios de 2018 para recopilar datos sobre los servicios públicos y completar una variedad de inspecciones de la infraestructura
