After breaking ground this past June, the Green Line LRT – SE Project anticipates an exciting upcoming year of construction!
Work on the Maintenance and Storage Facility (MSF), focusing on utility, earthworks, and infrastructure was completed in November, however construction of the facility will begin in 2026. The MSF is a large garage where the new light rail vehicles will be cleaned, maintained, and serviced.
The Blackfoot Trail LRT Bridge is a key piece of infrastructure for the Green Line, designed to carry trains over Blackfoot Trail SE just south of the 26 Avenue SE station. This project includes grading of the site, erosion and sediment control, drilling of concrete piles to build the foundation for the bridge abutments, and bridge construction.
In Ogden, the realignment of Ogden Road SE between the Canadian National Railway bridge and 69 Avenue SE is required to make room for the Green Line alignment, which will run between the realigned Ogden Road and the Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) railway line. Construction is also underway for the 78 Avenue SE LRT bridge running parallel to the west side of the CPKC railway line. The bridge will be built beside the new vehicle underpass that connects 78 Avenue to Ogden Dale Road on the east side of the railway line.
Procurement for the construction of stations, track, systems, and elevated sections will happen in 2026.
