As infrastructure needs and investment opportunities increase through federal and other funding sources across the nation, and as projects become increasingly complex, the ability to successfully deliver large-scale projects is critical. Being able to successfully apply a variety of project delivery models across transportation sectors enhances our capability as an industry to deliver much needed transportation improvements. VPRA's Long Bridge $2.3 Billion program to provide new rail capacity and multi-modal transportation improvements is being delivered using both design-build and progressive design-build methods. Best practices from VPRA's program, along with best procurement practices from the $2.3 Billion Transform 66 Outside the Beltway project will be presented, including risk sharing, industry collaboration, and procurement strategies.
