Description: Install one track crossover (723); Relocate catenary and signal power at several locations, perform modifications and removal of poles; Third-rail installation; Signal infrastructure installation, cable pulls, tie-ins, testing and cut-over of the 723 crossover incorporating changes to “F” Interlocking and software and hardware modification for the Penn Station Central Control (PSCC) ; Clear debris, materials and other incidentals from the Amtrak Maintenance-of-Way Yard; electrical traction relocations in support of the CH053 civil work.

Construction

Connecting Spur Track at North of Harold Interlocking.


1. Completed removal of Long Island connector track

2. Provided protection for catenary and signal gang Project Initiative (P.I.) status: P.I. for C&S, O1-O2 Switch and #51 switch – Completed P.I. for 68 Spur track - Completed P.I. for Stage 1 ET Catenary– In Progress

Schedule: The schedule variance is the result of the delayed start of Harold Structures Part 1 (CH053) and Harold Stage 1 catenary work. The catenary work drives the substantial completion date.

Cost: The increase in budget and forecast is due to the scope transfer of the signal trough installation from Harold Stage 2 to Harold Stage 1 plus the addition of the 68 spur track and 51 switch installations.

Critical Issues: Completion of final design for electric traction and subsequent Amtrak approval.
