ALBANY, NY — Dewberry, a privately held professional services firm, received three awards from the American Council of Engineering Companies of New York (ACEC NY).
Diamond Award, Transportation Category: Wyandanch and Pinelawn Stations Track and System Installations for the New Second Track on the Main Line Ronkonkoma Branch Phase II Option No. 2
Dewberry served as the lead designer as part of the design-build team for MTA Long Island Rail Road (MTA LIRR) Wyandanch and Pinelawn Stations. The MTA LIRR Wyandanch Station involved two 12-car-long platforms, with an automated snow and ice melt system, a pedestrian overpass with elevators, new stairs, canopies, and platform shelters. The firm designed a custom automated snow and ice melt system that heats the platform and prevents snow and ice from accumulating. The MTA LIRR Pinelawn Station included the design of two 192-foot platforms, passenger shelters, parking areas, and site improvements.Platinum Award, Studies, Research, and Consulting Engineering Services Category: Hunts Point Interstate Access Improvement Project
An AECOM/Dewberry joint venture provided project scoping, preliminary engineering, and preparation of an environmental impact statement for the $1.7-billion project. The Hunts Point Food Distribution Center is the largest food distribution facility in the nation, but there is no direct highway connection into and out of the peninsula. The goal of the project was to improve mobility, operations, and safety within the corridor, while improving access to the peninsula.Platinum Award, Transportation Category: Arthur Sheridan Enhancement Project
An AECOM/Dewberry joint venture led the effort for the New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) in developing the preliminary engineering and design report, while providing community outreach support, leading final design completion, and providing construction support services. The project also incorporated NYSDOT’s design of the arch bridge over the Bronx River into the contract. This was the first project in New York state to de-designate a federal interstate highway. The existing expressway was transformed into an urban arterial highway with a boulevard treatment.Your local Trimble Construction Division dealer |
