A Design-Build Partnership Brings Light Rail to Redmond
E360 East Link Extension
This joint venture partnership between Kiewit and Hoffman is one of only two projects that Sound Transit has initiated in the design-build delivery format. The $227 million project encompasses two miles of light rail track stretching from Park Place in Bellevue, Washington, to Overlake Transit Center in Redmond, Washington. It includes Overlake Village Station with a pedestrian bridge, leased office building, transit facility, and a four-level parking garage. The team overcame formidable early challenges, including COVID and the regional concrete strike.
Project Story
Prefabricated Pedestrian Bridge Safely Spans SR 520, Minimizing Traffic Disruption
We prefabricated a pedestrian/bicycle bridge and installed it over westbound state Route 520 in Redmond.
The completed bridge spans 240 feet over the highway and connects the Overlake Village light rail station to neighborhoods and businesses west of SR 520. The prefabricated bridge features an art installation of spaced aluminum louvers that create an intriguing visual effect for people crossing it.
