Direct Fixation Trackwork
Special Trackwork Construction
Project Description
The Detroit Transit Corporation (DTC) requires the replacement of rail through various curves on their Direct Fixation (DF) Track System. The work will require replacing rail and hardware while maintaining existing DF Fasteners, which includes the installation of shims required to accommodate for structural movements that have occurred over the course of the system's life span.
Included in the contract is a Turnout in the system that requires repairs due to the ageing of the system.
