Read MoreHide Full Article
Tutor Perini Corporation (TPC - Free Report) has received a notice from the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, in which the transportation authority mentioned its intention to award a contract to Tutor Perini for the Westside Purple Line Extension Section 2 Project.
The project involves construction of a 2.6-mile extension of the subway through Beverly Hills to Century City, including two new underground stations at Wilshire/Rodeo and Constellation/Avenue of the Stars. This subway extension will provide a high-capacity, high-speed, dependable transit alternative for those traveling to and from Los Angeles’ Westside.
The value of the contract is projected to be approximately $1.377 billion. Tutor Perini will serve as the lead partner, for the contract, on its joint-venture team with O&G Industries.
The contract award is expected by the end of Jan 2017, with the notice to proceed in Mar 2017. Substantial completion of the project is anticipated in Jan 2025. Tutor Perini’s portion of the contract value is likely to be included in first-quarter 2017 backlog.
Notably, this is one of the valuable contracts for the company. Tutor Perini’s financial strength and outstanding record of performance on challenging civil works projects enable it to score large projects.
Earlier, on Jan 9, 2017, Tutor Perini had announced that its subsidiary – Tutor Perini Building Corp. – has received a $72 million contract to build the first of eight residential towers at Metropica, located at 1800 NW 136th Avenue in Sunrise, FL.
Tutor Perini foresees gaining incremental new awards and revenue contributions from the newhighway bill in 2017, continuing through 2020. Moreover, the solid backlog, large volume of work and robust pipeline continue to support a favorable long-term outlook for growth and profitability for the company.
