Burnaby Transit Centre – Seismic Upgrade

Core provided project management services for the upgrade of an existing bus operations and maintenance facility in Burnaby BC. The $10M project increased the facility’s resiliency, in the event of an earthquake and expanded several buildings to accommodate an increase in 60ft buses within the CMBC fleet.

Core was specifically requested by Coast Mountain Bus Company (CMBC) and TransLink to oversee the project early in the construction phase due to the extent of project issues that had arisen. Work included the careful analysis of prior issues and new implementation of project controls to facilitate the successful completion. Excellent stakeholder communication was critical to help ensure that there was minimal disruption to the 24/7 operations of the facility, which was critical to keeping the bus fleet in operation.
