The Bladensburg Bus Garage, located in Washington, D.C., includes the demolition of an existing structure, site preparation, and construction of the new Bladensburg Bus Operations and Maintenance facility. The new facility will have the capacity to service a fleet of 250 WMATA transit vehicles, including articulated buses, and will run 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The facility will be designed to provide bus maintenance, repair, paint, operations, and fuel and wash services. The project included Compressed Natural Gas systems and provisions to accommodate future bus technology for the use of clean diesel, hybrid electrical diesel, and battery electric buses. Design is underway and construction is expected to begin in late 2020 and complete in 2025. Hensel Phelps teamed up with Michael Baker International Architects for this design-build project.
Located in Landover, Maryland, the Heavy Repair and Overhaul Facility will provide maintenance services to WMATA’s fleet of Metrorail vehicles.

A 560-space parking garage is also included in the project. Construction is anticipated to begin in August of 2021 and is scheduled for completion in June of 2024.
