The MTA's New York City Transit division wants a contractor for the Westchester Train Facility Integrated Drainage and Flood Resilience Project — a nine-figure sitework and drainage job, Contract C40001, located in the Bronx despite the Westchester name in the title.
Bids are due October 29, and the posted estimate puts the job at $100 million or more, putting it among the largest open solicitations on the board right now alongside the MTA's design-build station and signals work.
The scope is drainage and flood resilience at a train storage and maintenance facility — not a station or a track project, but the kind of resiliency work transit agencies have been pushing hard since repeated flooding has shut down yards and signal rooms in storms over the past several years. Climate-driven infrastructure spending at this scale, inside a facility contract rather than a visible public-facing project, is easy to miss on a quick scan of the pipeline, but it's real money and real scope for sitework, drainage, and heavy civil contractors.
For general contractors and heavy civil subs who do drainage, pump stations, or flood barrier work, this is a prime worth tracking regardless of whether you chase the full $100 million-plus scope — a job this size typically spins off a long list of subcontract packages once a prime is selected. The MTA's NYC Transit bid-results page is the place to watch for who shows up at the opening.
Bids are due October 29. The agency's own posting carries the full scope and bonding requirements — pull it now if drainage, dewatering, or flood-barrier work is in your wheelhouse.
