Parsons Transportation Group received a six-year, $60 million contract from the Foothill Gold Line Construction Authority for design and engineering services for a light rail extension.
The 2.3-mile project will extend the Metro A Line from Pomona, Calif., to Los Angeles County's Claremont.
The Parsons Corp. unit was one of "three highly qualified teams" that was evaluated, the construction authority said Thursday.
A joint venture of Kiewit and Parsons completed a Glendora-to-Pomona extension just over a year ago under a $906.5 million design-build contract. Pomona service began in September.
The construction manager contract for the extension to Claremont is expected to be awarded in May. Assuming a successful bid for the construction work, major construction is expected to begin in late-2027/early-2028 and take about four years to complete.
