Worcester Union Station is a rail and bus transportation hub in Worcester, MA. The existing 370' concrete side high-level rail platform is inadequate to support increasing passenger rail ridership and has degraded due to years of salt corrosion. The project involves a preliminary design of an 800' center island platform for the station that is capable of accommodating two 9-car trains, significantly upgrading the passenger rail capacity of the station and improving overall service in the MBTA rail system. The project explores the use of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) platform sections, as opposed to conventional concrete, in order to maximize the lifespan of the platform and accelerate construction.
