Under this agreement, the Kiewit-led consortium will be responsible for the installation of track and railway systems that form an essential component of the electrified infrastructure needed for the future operation of the high-speed rail service. This contract specifically covers the Central Valley section, marking a significant phase of ongoing construction efforts.
