TexRail Station - DFW Airport, Terminal B

Our Diversified Electrical Solutions Division was pleased to be able to deliver commercial power and critical electrical components for the TEXRail Station - DFW Airport, Terminal B, including utility relocations, power delivery, and much more. Below are just a few of the project highlights.

DFW Airport Terminal B station was built to accommodate the Trinity Metro TEXRail station and serve as a future Dallas Area Rapid Transit Silver Line station. The station is located at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport between Terminal B and DART’s existing DFW Airport light rail station. DFW Airport’s new $31-million station is the final stop for Trinity Metro’s TEXRail Project, a 27-mile-long commuter rail line that opened in January. The station sits within a 70-ft-wide space between two roads.

Features of the station include architectural-stressed fabric canopies that required construction of 10 piers on four 30-in. by 50-ft drilled shafts. In between the architectural fabric canopies, wall-mounted fabric canopies create a public space that protects passengers from the elements.

The project team contended with a lack of adequate as-built information about the surrounding area, difficult underground utility relocations, and a constrained project footprint.
