Austin Transit Partnership (ATP) has selected Kiewit Austin Partnership (KAP), a joint venture between Kiewit Building Group Inc. (Kiewit) and Austin Commercial, as the design-build contractor for the system’s Operations and Maintenance Facility—a critical component of Austin Light Rail that will support daily operations and long-term system performance.

Austin Transit Partnership has selected Austin Rail Constructors (ARC) as the construction contractor for Austin Light Rail, marking another major step toward beginning construction in 2027.

Austin Transit Partnership has completed the federal environmental review for Austin Light Rail, a major milestone that is critical to secure billions of dollars in federal funding and begin construction.

The RFI seeks industry feedback on the procurement documents and processes for ATP's final design and construction contract, which it plans to award next year. The partners selected for the multibillion-dollar agreement will help shape and deliver nearly every aspect of Austin’s first light rail system and play a critical role in the project’s success.
