The CBTC project on the Queens Boulevard Line (QBL) is an important initiative that provides modernized train control technology to improve transit efficiency and safety. This project covers the installation of CBTC equipment on 335 R160 units, as well as the development of the technical foundation for the B-Division Automatic Train Supervision (ATS). The QBL-W is the first interoperable CBTC project implemented for NYCT, allowing trains with CBTC to run on the same line at the same time with equipment from different suppliers. MCSS is providing Construction Management support for the Consultant Construction Manager overseeing all field installation work. Additionally, MCSS is providing signal construction field inspection services and project safety support.

Construction costs over $300M
