7/25 PACE, a bus agency, is requesting proposals from design-build teams for the North Phase 2 expansion and electrification project of its garage in Waukegan. The agency has secured federal funding to acquire 22 electric buses this year. Ten of those buses will be based at the Waukegan garage, which is planned to be converted to full electric operations by 2026. The work consists of expanding the bus storage area by 13,400 sq ft, which will replace the north wall and will add approximately 7,650 sq ft of exterior wall. Additional work includes removing and replacing the roofing, structural reinforcement of the roof structure, new roof-mounted exhaust fans, overhead crane and fall protection, upgrading the facility electrical system—as the recommended charging strategy uses medium voltage power (12 kV-50 kV)—and procuring and installing chargers and overhead charging pantographs for 60 BEBs. The project is valued at $81.3 million. PACE Purchasing Section, 550 W. Algonquin Road, Arlington Heights, 60005. DR#24-00145543.
