Construction Update

Spring is upon us and with that comes a concentrated push of construction activities. Here are some of the activities you will see around Union Station (and some that you can't see).

Regional Bus Facility
Crews are continuing to work on waterproofing the roof of the underground bus facility. As sections of this work are complete, the backfill operation begins. This process will be ongoing for the month.

There is also activity on the interior of the underground bus facility. Crews areworking on the installation of electrical/mechanical rough-ins and masonry forinterior partitions.

Light Rail Platform
The Overhead Catenary System (OCS) poles and cantilevers installation will be ongoing as will work on the east platform.

Streets and Utilities
The utility installation on Wynkoop St. from 15th St. to 19th St. is nearing completion. This has been a collaborative effort with Qwest, Comcast, and DUS Project utility teams. There will continue to be lane, parking and sidewalk restrictions associated with this work. There are other ancillary utility projects, not managed by Kiewit, in the neighborhood as well, so please use caution when driving in this area.

Behind Denver Union Station
In preparation for the excavation for the next phase of the underground bus facility, demolition of old track, HOV lanes, train platforms, canopies and the old pedestrian tunnel are on-going. Once complete, crews will begin the de-watering process. Excavation in the area should begin in May.
