Oakland Joint Intermodal Terminal Design Development and Engineering

Client: Port of Oakland
Project location: Oakland, California
Project cost: $30 million
JWD Group designed the new Joint Intermodal Terminal facility, for ship to rail transportation; converting a decommissioned naval facility to an intermodal container transfer facility. The project consisted of two phases: an 88-acre development replacing the present Naval Supply Center, and the full 150-acre build-out to occupy the adjacent Union Pacific Intermodal Facility. Work included design of the rail lines and site track work, yard automation and signalization, gate and administrative facilities, loading equipment and track geometry, utility systems and lighting, and site access to and from local streets.
We also prepared master layouts for the administration/control center, gate facilities, rail yard and track alignment, railroad utilities, signals and controls, general paving plans, an overall grading plan, utilities, lighting, power, grading and drainage, and construction phasing. Site engineering included the complete design development, civil and track engineering, paving, striping, lighting, electrical load centers, all supporting systems and environmental/drainage.
