PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project signals the Chinese railway equipment manufacturing industry’s launch in the United States and marks CCA’s entry into the Massachusetts construction market.
Served as the design-builder, the project team managed the process from the conceptual design through the final stage of construction and the installation of the assembly equipment for the state-of-art facility on a 40-acre site. The factory includes 205,000 square-foot High Bay Railcar assembly facility, and 2,240 foot dynamic test track, and the building is about 300 by 700 feet, which is big enough for three and a half football fields.
