The project-specific information supplements the Capital Improvement Program Management Plan (CIPMP), which contains a detailed description of the management process for the DART Capital Improvement Program. The PMP is an integral management tool in defining the following for each project element: > Scope > Engineering elements > Design plan > Construction plan > Interfaces > Schedule > Budget > Major issues 1.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Light Rail Build-Out Phase II-A project is shown in Exhibit 1-1. It includes the following major elements. Systems - System elements apply to each corridor and include Light Rail Vehicles (Chapter 2.0), Traction Electrification Systems (Chapter 3.0) Signals (Chapter 4.0), Communications and Central Control (Chapter 5.0), Corrosion Control (Chapter 6.0) and Fare Collection (Chapter 7.0). System Elements for the Build-out Phase II-A project are designed to be consistent with the existing installations of the LRT Starter System and Build-Out Phase I. The Systems elements are funded from a combination of local and federal sources. Northwest Corridor - The Northwest Corridor will add approximately 16.4 miles northwest from the West End Station to the Frankford Station in the City of Carrollton. The corridor consists of five line sections, NW-1A (Chapter 8.0), NW-1B (Chapter 9.0), NW-2 Chapter 10.0), NW-3 (Chapter 11.0), and NW-4 (Chapter 12.0). The corridor is a combination of atgrade, aerial, and underground alignments. There are six at-grade stations and six aerial stations in the corridor. The funding for this corridor is a combination of local and federal funding with the exception of NW-4, which will be funded locally. Southeast Corridor - The Southeast Corridor extends for approximately 10.10 miles southeast from the existing Pearl Station to the Buckner Station in the City of Dallas. The corridor consists of two line sections, SE-1 (Chapter 13.0), and SE-2 (Chapter 14.0). The corridor is a combination of at-grade and aerial alignments. There are eight stations on the corridor, which are all at-grade stations. The funding for this corridor is a combination of local and federal funding. LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 1 -1 Revision 3: May 26,2006 Northwest Rail Operations Facility (NWROF) - The existing S & I Facility is able to maintain 95 vehicles and store up to 125. This leaves a minimum of 75 vehicles to be maintained. For planning purposes this facility (Chapter 15.0) will accommodate up to 100 vehicles. This Facility will help to accommodate vehicles associated with the Northwest Corridor when it opens in 2010. This new facilities requirement to maintain and store up to 100 vehicles results in a target size of approximately 30 acres. This facility will be funded from a combination of local and federal sources. Svstemwide Elements - Svstemwide elements include Trackwork Materials (Chapter 16.0) and an Art and Design Program (Chapter 17.0). The procurement of the Traction Power Substations (TPSS), Radio Equipment, Car Bourne Cab Signal Equipment, Fare Equipment, and Operations Control Center (OCC) Modifications are also systemwide elements. The Art and Design program provide a unique design to each station. These elements are funded from the combinations of local and federal sources. 1.2 SCOPE The LRT Build-Out Phase II-A PMP is a supplementary document to the Capital Improvement Program Management Plan (CIPMP).

LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 1 -8 Revision 3: May 26,2006 2.0 LIGHT RAIL VEHICLES Systems Element Manager (SEM): Ron Swindell Assistant Vice President - Systems Engineering: Ron Swindell Design Consultant Support: LTK Engineering Services (LTKES) Construction Manager/COR: LTK Engineering Services - G. J. Morgan Design/Build Contractor: Kinkisharyo - Itochu 2.1 OVERVIEW The Assistant Vice President of Systems Engineering is responsible for management of the vehicle design consultant to assure that Planning, Engineering, and Construction Management as described below are performed in a timely manner to make LRV's available for DART operation as required. The Light Rail Vehicle (LRV) and all systems are generally of proven technology. The overall dimensions are 92 ft. 8 in. long, 8 ft. 10 in. wide and 12 ft. 6 in. high with a futuristic, "high-tech" appearance. The vehicle is a 3-truck, 6-axle, articulated vehicle with the two end trucks being powered. There are 72 seats in each vehicle. The empty car design weight (AWO) is 110,000 pounds maximum. Average weight for the fleet is approximately 108,000 pounds. Each car has two single leaf and two double leaf sliding doors per side and an operator's cab at each end. The vehicle is intended for unrestricted, bi-directional operation. Power (750 VDC) is collected from the overhead contact system with a single-arm pantograph. Top operating speed is 65 miles per hour (mph). The LRV is capable of multiple unit revenue operation in trains of up to 4 cars, or up to 8 cars for maintenance or emergency operation. Current revenue service operation consists of 1, 2 and 3 car trains. The LRVs have AC propulsion, regenerative, dynamic and disc brakes, automatic air conditioning and Automatic Train Stop. The LRVs are compliant with the requirements of the American's with Disabilities Act (ADA). For the Phase II Expansion, DART will modify the fleet of 115 LRVs (95 existing and 20 on order) by adding a 31 ft long, low floor center section (C-car) to each vehicle to create a fleet of 115 Super Light Rail Vehicles (Super-LRV). This modified fleet will provide for direct, level boarding, from 16" high platforms, into each car. After modification the basic characteristics of the rail vehicles will be changed as follows: 1) Overall length will increase to 123 ft. 8in., 2) Description of the vehicle will be a 4 truck, 8 axle, double articulated rail vehicle, with a low floor center section, 3) There will be 104 seats in each Super-LRV, 4) there will be three double leaf doors per side and two single leaf doors per side, 5) the empty car design weight (AWO) will be 138,000lb, 5) Average weight will be approx 137,000lb. Converting the fleet of 115 vehicles to Super-LRVs will provide enough capacity to support service for the SE-1 and NW-1 line sections (38 C car retrofits are attributable to the LRT Buildout Phase II-A MOS). To meet requirements and passenger capacity for the LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 2-1 Revision 3: May 26,2006 complete Phase II-A Expansion, DART will procure an additional 25 complete (18 of which are attributable to the MOS), new, Super-LRVs (consisting of A-C-B sections). 2.2 CONTRACT UNIT DESCRIPTION 2.2.1 Scope - The Scope for the procurement of LRVs is to provide compatible vehicles to supplement the existing vehicle fleet to provide required seating for Build Out Phase II. 2.2.2 Contracting Process The contracting process will be in accordance with DART and Federal Procurement regulations. 2.2.3 Contract Cost The contract costs associated with this element are contained within the DART LRT Project Budget Book (a separate document). 2.3 ENGINEERING PLAN 2.3.1 Principal Design Considerations 2.3.2 General 2.3.3 The Build-Out Phase II estimates indicated that a 17,280 seat equivalent car fleet will be necessary to satisfy the initial rider ship projections, taking into account maintenance cycles and spare car ratios. 2.3.4 Right-of-Way (ROW) constraints, patronage estimates, operational and maintenance preferences all contributed to establishment of the principal requirements and characteristics of the Super LRV. 2.3.5 The structural design load criteria for the vehicle is an artificial load condition which is a minimum of 104 seated passengers in the vehicle, plus standing passengers at 1.3 square feet per passenger (8 passengers per square meter). 2.3.6 To achieve the maximum operational advantages in revenue service, relatively high performance is required both for acceleration and braking (e.g., many stations at frequent intervals) and for a high top speed to take advantage of long, gradeseparated sections between some stations. 2.3.7 Alignment 2.3.7.1 Central Business District (CBD) The CBD segment imposes the majority of ROW and operational constraints found in the system. Downtown block lengths are nominally 400 feet (property line to property line), thereby limiting overall train length. The ROW is relatively narrow thereby requiring tight turning movements. LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 2-2 Revision 3: May 26,2006 2.3.7.2 Service and Inspection (S&l) Facility The criteria for the minimum turning radius for the vehicle is defined by the track layout in the S&l Facility. Minimum turn radius is eightytwo (82) feet [twenty-five (25) meters]. 2.3.8 Traction Electrification A nominal traction electrification voltage of 750 VDC was chosen as the optimum power supply for the DART Starter System. This is recognized as one of the "standard" voltages for transit systems. Rail vehicle equipment and systems are readily available for this operating voltage. 2.3.9 Basic Vehicle Type The existing DART LRVs will be converted to Super-LRVs by inserting a 31 ft. long low floor center section (C-car) into each vehicle. This will increase the overall length of the DART vehicle to 123 ft. 8 in. The Super-LRV is double articulated, 8 axled, 3 section rail vehicle with a low floor center section. There are 104 seats in each Super-LRV. The Super-LRVs can be operated either as single cars or in multiple car trains. 2.3.10 Proven Design Requirements for proven subsystems and ease of maintenance were established as the principal criteria in the technical specification. 2.3.11 Mobility Impaired Accessibility Accessibility for passengers with mobility impairments will be provided by direct level boarding into the low floor center section of the Super-LRVs from 16" high platforms. All new stations will be constructed to be 16" above top of rail (TOR). The existing stations platforms in the CBD will be modified to have 16" high platforms.

During the Contractor's design stage, DART and the LRV Design Consultant review the plans and procedures for conformance to the specification requirements. The Contractor procures the subsystems equipment and material for the vehicle and establishes quality control procedures for the fabrication and assembly of the vehicle in conformance with specification requirements. Procedures for design verification, routine factory testing, and acceptance testing of the vehicle and all LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 2-6 Revision 3: May 26,2006 systems are also established and verified to be in conformance with specification requirements. Production is started and carried out at the Contractor's facility. During this period, DART on-site representation at the factory monitors production, inspection and testing activities. Design verification testing of major car body components is also performed at the Contractor's and sub- suppliers' facilities. Once the factory production is completed, the low floor center sections and SuperLRVs are shipped to the U.S. assembly facility where final assembly is accomplished. Production, inspection and testing activities are also monitored at the Final Assembly (FA) site. After final assembly, the Contractor ships the low floor center sections and SuperLRVs to the S&l Facility. Pre-delivery and acceptance testing activities are conducted on each vehicle utilizing the test track. This work requires coordination with Operations personnel and other Contractors (TES, Signals and Communications). The Contractor initiates training programs for operations and maintenance. Also, coordination with DART Operations, Maintenance and Security to define the requirements and procedures for initiation of service speed operation of trains on the main line is required. "Burn-in" operation to build up mileage on the vehicles is conducted to allow the Contractor to debug the equipment in preparation for the reliability demonstration period. Super-LRVs are also used to test TES and Signal systems, verify dynamic clearances, conduct operations training. The warranty administration and reliability and maintainability monitoring programs are initiated. Performance is monitored before and after start-up of revenue service. LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 2-7 Revision 3: May 26,2006 3.0 TRACTION ELECTRIFICATION System Element Manager: Glenn Shankle Assistant Vice President - Systems Engineering: Ron Swindell Assistant Vice President - Construction Management: Diane Gollhofer Design Consultant Support: Systems Design Consultant - Dallas Systems Consultants Construction Engineering Manager: Various Construction Manager/COR Dallas Systems Consultants- TBD (TPSS) Resident Construction Manager: Various CM/GC: TBD/Various Design/Build Contractor: TBD (TPSS) 3.1 OVERVIEW The Assistant Vice President of Systems Engineering is responsible for the management of the Systems Design Consultant to assure that Planning, Engineering, and Construction Support as described below are performed in a timely manner to provide the Traction Electrification System for operation as required. The traction electrification system consists of all equipment and subsystems from the point of receiving power from TXU Electric or other power utilities to the point of utilization of that power by the Light Rail Vehicles. The rail transit traction power is supplied at a nominal voltage of 750 VDC to the Overhead Contact System, which distributes the power to the transit vehicles. The running rails and negative power cables provided the negative currents return path. Traction power is supplied by thyristor-regulated substations along the mainline. Each mainline substation is rated 2.5 megawatts. Substations spacings are typically one to one and a half miles. The exact locations of substations are determined during system design through computer simulations combined with real estate availability to provide the most cost effective method to supply Traction power to the rail transit system. Each substation contains AC switchgear, one transformer-rectifier unit, DC switchgear, and auxiliary electrical equipment for supply of auxiliary AC power for operation of the substation. Additionally, the substation provides power for both signals and communications. The utility metering points are provided by TXU Electric and are located in the vicinity of the substation. The overhead contact system is an auto-tensioned simple catenary, with the exception of the NWROF facility, which uses a direct fixation, single contact wire. 3.2 CONTRACT UNIT DESCRIPTION 3.2.1 Scope The Traction Electrification system is divided into two components. The first component covers the Final Design, Furnish and Installation of the Traction Power Substations, which generally encompasses the provision of all necessary equipment to receive AC power from the local utility and the convert to DC power for utilization by the LRVs. This contract includes: LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 3-1 Revision 3: May 26,2006 > Design, supply, installation, and testing of prefabricated outdoor traction power substations (TPSS) > Maintenance of the system after beneficial occupancy but before final acceptance > Field support for start-up and integrated system tests > Provision of training for DART O&M personnel > Supply of spare parts and testing equipment > Supply of operations and maintenance manuals The second component is comprised of the overhead contact distribution system and all the necessary appurtenances. This component is to be delivered by the CM/GC and includes the following: > Construction of substation foundations and ground mats > Hardware application design, supply and installation of the Overhead Contact System (OCS) including support structures > Design and placement of all TES, communications and signal conduits from interface points to the substations > Supply, installation, and connection of all TES cables; including low voltage power supply to signal and communication houses > Provision of storage facilities for construction > Final design of the OCS > Procurement and installation of utility warning signs > Installation of conduits from utility power system at the metering point to the TPSS > Utility connection from utility distribution to substation, including metering (by utility) 3.2.2 Contracting Process 3.2.2.1 TPSS A two-step procurement process is used. The first step includes development of a detailed specification, issuance of procurement documents by DART, submittal of technical proposals (by proposers), evaluation of those technical proposals including individual interviews with each proposer, possible re-submittal of technical proposals and amendment of DART specifications, and determination by DART of the acceptability of final technical proposals and requirements. The second step includes DART issuance of the request for price, submittal of bids by acceptable proposers, contract award to the responsible proposer with the lowest price, and the Notice to Proceed with implementation of the Contract. LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 3-2 Revision 3: May 26,2006 3.2.2.2 Non-TPSS Items These items are the responsibility of CM/GC. The items will be included in the construction scope negotiated during the development of the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the CM/GC contract. 3.2.3 Contract Cost The contract costs associated with this element are contained within the DART LRT Project Budget Book (a separate document). 3.3 ENGINEERING PLAN 3.3.1 Principal Design Considerations DART has chosen 750 VDC as the nominal voltage for the DART LRT System Program, which is compatible with all previous system installations which are now in revenue service. The AC supply from the utility is fed to the delta primary of the substation transformers. A phase-controlled thyristor TPSS rectifier was selected over diode rectifier types. The ability to regulate the output by virtue of thyristor control enables better power management, cost efficiency and reduced capital costs due to the need for less substations. The power supply system capacity is primarily determined by the power requirements of the LRV's during the maximum daily peak periods in the operation of a rail transit system. This supply system has the built-in overload capacity as defined by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) standards and industry practice for equipment for rail transit applications. The design of electrical equipment takes into account the acceleration of one or more trains operating simultaneously in each electrical section during the peak travel period. The voltage characteristics required for the LRV limits the maximum allowable resistance of the direct current distribution system and hence the distance between adjacent substations. The minimum catenary line voltage is designed not to fall below that required for the operation of the rail vehicles. Design consideration is also given to the emergency feeding capability of a TPSS in the event of a power failure at an adjacent substation. For the purpose of economic selection of substation power requirements, it is assumed the vehicles are permitted to operate in a reduced performance mode in the event one substation is off-line in a particular area. In order to maintain acceptable voltage regulations on the OCS, promote standardization and economically blend power demands with utility billing practices, all substations are all specified to have the same 2.5 MW power rating. Substation components and subassemblies are also chosen to be modular and interchangeable to minimize spare parts inventory and to standardize and facilitate maintenance. LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 3-3 Revision 3: May 26,2006 The traction electrification system is properly coordinated through the Energy Management System (EMS) for distribution of traction power, and also according to the rail operations plan to provide an efficient and effective power distribution system. DC systems also require attention relative to stray traction return currents, which can leave the LRT power network and cause corrosion to other wayside metallic systems (e.g., utility lines, structures, etc.). Control devices at all substations, stray current mitigation along trackway, and protection of adjacent metallic structures minimize stray currents. 3.3.2 Design Participants The Systems Design Consultant (SDC), performs the design and prepares the performance specifications and drawings. In particular, SDC determines catenary pole locations in accordance with track alignment (provided by Facilities Engineering), substation power requirements and locations, and substation and pole foundation design.

During the design stage, SDC's project engineer works closely with the CM/GC to review submittals and approve the designs as they proceed. This allows for early fabrication of the first substation and catenary hardware. The overhead wires are ordered by the CM/GC according to the designed wire tension sections. SDC coordinates and monitors the CM/GC's equipment and hardware fabrication process and provides personnel to witness testing at the suppliers plant, as required. The Overhead Contact System (OCS) installation begins after the track-work is completed so that the OCS can be adjusted and finalized to the as-built track positions. The CM/GC installs the catenary poles and associated hardware on the prepared foundations. Wires are then pulled and adjusted. In the station areas where required by architectural design, catenary supports are installed into the canopy trusses by the CM/GC in advance of the OCS installation. The CM/GC pulls all feeder cables from substation to pole feeding locations along the track and across the trackways; and return cables from the track connecting points to the substation. The locations of the track connecting points are provided to the CM/GC. The substation installation is independent of track-work or other on-track construction activities and is provided by the TPSS Contractor. The CM/GC installs grounding mats and foundations and any necessary ductwork from substation to the interface manholes at the substation sites. The substations are delivered to the sites and installed on the prepared foundations. The CM/GC connects the substations and the OCS. Corrosion control measures, such as continuity bonding and cathodic protection for structures, are incorporated into the civil/structural construction Inspections are conducted during construction to check that these measures are installed properly. Tests are performed by the SDC at all the test stations installed along the trackway to verify the integrity of the installations. Test stations are also permanently installed by the CM/GC for later monitoring by DART Operations Department personnel as part of their maintenance program. Rail to ground resistance requirements are specified by the SDC in the Trackwork contract. SDC personnel perform field-testing to ensure that the specified requirements are met. LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 3-8 Revision 3: May 26,2006 4.0 SIGNAL SYSTEM Systems Element Manager: Carrene Gilbert Assistant Vice President - Systems Engineering: Ron Swindell Assistant Vice President - Construction Management: Diane Gollhofer Design Consultant Support: Systems Design Consultant - Dallas Systems Consulting Construction Engineering Manager: Various Resident Construction Manager: Various CM/GC: TBD Various 4.1 OVERVIEW The Assistant Vice President of Systems Engineering is responsible for the management of the Systems Design Consultant to assure that Planning, Engineering, and Construction Support as described below are performed in a timely manner to provide the Signal System for operation as required. The signal system consists of all wayside equipment that controls the movement of trains, power operation of switch machines, selection of routes, and warning to highway traffic at grade crossings. It does not include any car-borne equipment necessary for these functions, which will be provided under the vehicles contract. All necessary circuitry for control and interconnection of the signal equipment is part of this system. The objectives of this LRT project element are the performance specifications which form the basis for a qualified signal Contractor to design, furnish, install, test, train and maintain (through final acceptance) all parts of the signal system, and the integration of this operable system into the LRT network. 4.1.1 Geographical 4.1.2 The LRT Build-out Phase II-A system is considered signaled territory. 4.1.2.1 Signaled Territory Line sections identified as NW-1, NW-2, NW-3, and NW-4 on the Northwest Line, and SE-1 and SE-2 on the Southeast Line will operate with close headway and high operating speeds which dictate automatic train protection. The Northwest Rail Operating Facility may also be signalized. 4.1.3 Physical 4.1.3.1 Interlockings LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 4-1 Revision 3: May 26,2006 Vital (fail-safe) interlockings protect train movement through powered switches in signaled territory. Vital interlockings are remotely controlled from the Train Control Center (TCC), automatically controlled by route request circuits, or locally controlled from panels within the signal housings. Only one of these control modes can be in effect at any time. Fail-safe field logic will over-ride any unprotected or unsafe requests from TCC. At Terminal Interlockings, train movement through powered switches will be protected through fail-safe design. Terminal interlockings are automatically controlled by the interlocking route selection logic circuits. A manual override method is provided at the interlocking for special conditions. 4.1.3.2 Automatic Highway Crossing Warning Systems Automatic "highway crossing" warning systems consist of flashing light signals, bells, gates, and cantilevered signals as required by train operations and highway conditions. 4.1.3.3 Cab Signal A cab signal system will send speed commands indicating the maximum safe operating speed to the train via track circuits. The speed of the train will be monitored by equipment in the train and compared to the maximum safe speed. Attempts to operate the train faster than the safe speed will first cause a warning, and will then force the train to a stop if the warning is ignored. Switch point indicators will provide train operators a visible means to verify the route called at each interlocking. Train stops will be provided at each switch point indicator to enforce switch safe margins between trains. 4.1.3.4 Northwest Rail Operating Facility Signal System The yard signal system consists of power switch machine with switch position indicators, automatic route requests via TWC, route request pushbuttons and indicators, and non-vital control circuitry necessary for efficient yard operations. 4.1.4 Operational 4.1.4.1 Scheduled Headway Scheduled headways (time margins between trains) are determined by the system Operation Plan. "Design headways" are established to allow recovery from disruptions to normal service. LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 4-2 Revision 3: May 26,2006 4.1.4.2 Operating Speeds The signal system is designed for the maximum speeds allowed on each section of track. The maximum allowable speeds are established by the system Operation Plan and the civil alignment. 4.2 CONTRACT UNIT DESCRIPTION 4.2.1 Scope The signal system is divided into two components. The first component is comprised of the final design, furnish, and installation of car borne cab signal equipment. This contract includes: > Car Borne Cab Signal Equipment > Training of DART personnel on Car Borne Equipment The second component is comprised of the train to wayside control and all necessary appurtenances. This component is to be delivered by the CM/GC and includes the following: Manufacture, supply and installation of: > Track circuit and wayside control equipment > Factory wired signal bungalows and cases > Train stops (installation of the wayside component and testing of the system) > Wayside cab signal equipment > Impedance bonds > Power-operated switch machines > Yard pushbuttons and indicators (Northwest Rail Operating Facility only) > Automatic highway crossing warning system > Train to wayside communication system (TWC) > Train operation signage > Cabling > Rail bonding, cross bonding and connection of TES returns > Signal equipment foundations > Maintenance of the system until final acceptance > Supply of spare parts > Comparable equipment for wayside and car bourne cab signal equipment as required LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 4-3 Revision 3: May 26,2006 > Grading of bungalow sites > Landscaping and/or architectural finish to bungalows > Grounding system on overpass structures 4.2.1.1 Testing, including integrated system tests. 4.2.1.2 Training of DART personnel 4.2.1.3 Start-up of Signal System 4.2.2 Contracting Process 4.2.2.1 Car Borne Cab Signal Equipment The proposed contracting method is a two-step procurement process. The first step includes development of a detailed specification, a Request for Technical Proposal by DART, submittal of technical offers by proposers, evaluation of those technical offers, including individual interviews with each proposer, possible amendment of specifications and technical offers, and determination by DART of the acceptability of final technical matters. The second step includes DART issuance of the request for price, submittal of bids by acceptable proposers, contract award to the responsible proposer with the lowest price and the Notice to Proceed with implementation of the Contract. 4.2.2.2 Wayside Cab Signal Items These items are the responsibility of CM/GC. The items will be included in the construction scope negotiated during the development of the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the CM/GC contract. 4.3 ENGINEERING 4.3.1 Criteria 4.3.1.1 Regulations Applicable codes and regulations are taken into account in the design of the signal system. Specific codes having jurisdiction over parts of the signal system are in: 4.3.1.2 Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (Texas MUTCD). 4.3.1.3 Standards LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 4-4 Revision 3: May 26,2006 Wherever possible industry recognized and accepted standards are used to ensure safety, uniformity with other properties, and economy. Such standards and sources include: 4.3.1.4 American Railway Engineering and Maintenance of Way Association Communications & Signals Manual of Recommended Practices: > Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standards > Insulated Cable Engineers Associations > American National Standards Institute > American Railway Engineering Association > Federal Railroad Administration > Military Specifications > National Electrical Manufacturers Association 4.3.1.5 Considerations The signal systems are designed using fail-safe design principals. All circuits and logic are based on the closed loop principal of circuit design. Every effort is made to utilize only equipment and designs, which have been previously used in similar systems in the United States. Untested systems are not allowed in the DART signal system. 4.3.2 Major Systems Elements 4.3.2.1 Interlockings Interlockings are designed to minimize the need for manipulation and intervention by the Train Control Center (TCC). This is accomplished through the use of automatic routing at junctions. Locations of interlockings and their requirements are established by the system Operating Plan. Terminal operation is controlled by automatic terminal operation logic. 4.3.2.2 Wayside Signal System LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 4-5 Revision 3: May 26,2006 The wayside signal system is designed to provide clear and concise information to the vehicle operator through color light signal aspects, speed limit signage, and other indicators. The vehicle braking characteristics, the civil alignment, and the system headway requirements determines the signal spacing. Safe minimum time intervals for train movements between signals are established where track conditions such as steep downhill grades or tight curves call for the enforcement of speed reductions. 4.3.2.3 Train Stop System A train stop system is used to enforce stop indications at interlocking signals and automatic block signals by automatic application of modified emergency service braking aboard the violating train. A counter on the vehicle records such violations. If used, a cab signal system will send speed commands indicating the maximum safe operating speed to the train via track circuits. The speed of the train will be monitored by equipment in the train and compared to the maximum safe speed. Attempts to operate the train faster than the safe speed will first cause a warning, and will then force the train to a stop if the warning is ignored. 4.3.2.4 Train to Wayside Communications (TWC) The TWC provides an appropriate means for the establishment of train routes automatically from car-borne equipment. TWC is also used for nearside crossing operations. 4.3.2.5 Track Circuits Track circuits provide fail safe detection of trains for the operation of the signal system. Track circuit technology is selected with consideration for the electromagnetic environment to be encountered throughout the entire light rail system. Compatibility with specifications for the traction power system and the vehicle propulsion equipment is verified prior to the completion of the signals specifications. 4.3.2.6 Gate Malfunction Detection and Indication Gate Malfunction detection and indication will be provided via the SCADA system. SCADA will recognize excessive gate down time, which could indicate a crossing failure. 4.3.2.7 Non-vital Yard Signal System LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 4-6 Revision 3: May 26,2006 The yard signal system is a non-vital system designed to provide efficient operations under non-revenue conditions. The primary responsibility for safety in the yard is with the vehicle operator. 4.3.2.8 Cableway (Ductbank/Cable Trough) A cableway will be installed along the right-of-way and shared with Communications. In general, a pre-cast or pre-molded trough will be run in the center of the guideway between the inbound and outbound tracks. At locations where cables must pass to the outside of the tracks, the trough will generally transition into a manhole and duct system. In areas where operational, alignment and construction requirements dictate, track crossings can be made by running the trough between the ties. 4.3.2.9 Signal Power Distribution Center The primary source of all power to the signal system is the traction power sub-stations.

LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 5-14 Revision 3: May 26,2006 6.0 CORROSION CONTROL Systems Element Manager: Glenn Shankle Assistant Vice President - Systems Engineering: Ron Swindell Design Consultant Support: Systems Design Consultant - Dallas Systems Consulting Construction Manager: TBD Contractors: CM/GC-TBD 6.1 OVERVIEW 6.1.1 Design The Assistant Vice President of Systems Engineering is responsible for the management of the Systems Design Consultant to assure that Planning, Engineering, and Construction Management as described below are performed in a timely manner to provide the implementation of Corrosion Control - Central mitigation requirements for operation as required. Corrosion control engineering addresses three broad areas, namely natural soils corrosion, atmospheric corrosion and stray current corrosion. While there is some overlap among these areas, especially between soils and stray current corrosion, each area is addressed independently. Engineering work involves essentially all aspects of design, including civil, trackwork, structural, facilities, traction electrification and other disciplines. This engineering information is consolidated into the corrosion control program. The soils, atmospheric and stray current environments are assessed relative to anticipated corrosion rates for commonly used construction materials and materials/systems specific to the DART project. This information is used to develop project specific corrosion control systems to maximize the service life of the DART system while reducing maintenance costs and providing continuity of operations. Another broad issue is to minimize the stray current impacts on third party facilities, principally pipelines and cables, due to DART's Light Rail operations. 6.1.2 Soils Corrosion Control Corrosion caused by natural occurring corrosive soils is assessed through direct measurement of selected soils and review of previous studies. Corrosion control is implemented on DART facilities through application of one or more of the following generic measures: > Material selection > Protective coatings > Cathodic Protection 6.1.3 Atmospheric Corrosion Control LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 6-1 Revision 3: May 26,2006 Corrosion caused by local atmospheric conditions is assessed through on-site observations along the right-of-way, literature review and discussion with owner/operators of aboveground physical plants. Extensive use is made of pervious studies in this area. Corrosion control is implemented through selection of materials and application of protective coatings/paint systems, 6.1.4 Stray Current Corrosion Control Corrosion caused by stray earth currents is assessed through network analysis of the traction control requirements. 6.2 CONTRACT UNIT DESCRIPTION Corrosion control is included in the CM/GC Contract through the final design process. Contracting costs are included with specific facilities, system elements and material procurement when corrosion control is required. 6.3 ENGINEERING PLAN 6.3.1 Review contract documents at various stages of completion. At 90% completion assess corrosion control implementation and to incorporate contract specific requirements not covered by the standards. 6.3.2 Design corrosion control systems on a contract specific basis to cover elements and systems not covered adequately by the standards. Prepare drawings and specifications for these items as necessary. 6.3.3 Provide cost estimates for corrosion control systems and testing. 6.3.4 Review and provide responses on technical issues raised by other disciplines and designers concerning corrosion control. 6.3.5 Establish a corrosion control committee including various utilities, design consultants and DART to coordinate and address stray current corrosion control issues. 6.3.6 Conduct corrosion testing during construction phases of line section contracts. 6.3.7 Perform final acceptance testing of all corrosion control measures. Principally trackwork and DWU water mains. 6.3.8 Prepare an integrated corrosion control test program and procedures for start-up and revenue operations testing. Coordinate and perform start-up and revenue corrosion control tests with area utility operators. 6.3.9 6.3.10 6.4 Prepare input for the Operations and Maintenance manual, including periodic retesting requirements for corrosion control.

The alignment would begin north of Valley View Lane and continue to cross Valwood Parkway at grade, continuing to just south of Crosby Road where it would become aerial to cross Crosby Road and the major Belt Line Road / BNSF RR / Cotton Belt RR crossing. An aerial station, Carrollton Square, would be provided just north of Belt Line Road. The alignment would stay aerial to the north, passing over Old Denton Road and, the return to grade and cross Whitlock Road. The alignment would be grade-separated at Jackson Road, and cross Ismaili Center Circle at grade. The Trinity Mills Station would be located at grade just south of SH 190 (President George Bush Turnpike). The Trinity Mills Station would replace the existing North Carrollton Transit Center, which would be closed when the LRT project is opened for service. The line would cross the SH 190 eastbound and westbound service roads at-grade (under the mainlines), and continue north at grade to the last station just south of Frankford Road. The proposed top of rail for NW-4 was designed to match the grade of the existing freight tracks thereby minimizing required street modifications at grade crossings and to minimize fill requirements. Since the proposed double track roadbed would be wider than the existing single-track roadbed, the top of rail profile would be placed so that the ditches would fit within the existing right-of-way, when possible. The profile was designed to minimize bridge pier heights and approach retaining wall heights for aerial structures. Throughout all flood plain areas the top-of-rail profile was placed so that the bottom of ballast material would be 1-ft above the 100-year flood elevation. 12.2 CONTRACT UNIT DESCRIPTION 12.2.1 Scope This line section element is the responsibility of the CM/GC. The contract line section consists of new bridge construction, street improvements, utilities, stations and systems construction of Line section NW-4 and its appurtenances. 12.2.2 The work for this contract includes the following: LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 12-1 Revision 3: May 26,2006 > Freight track removal and relocation > Clearing and grubbing > Grading, drainage and paving > Earthwork > Water and sewer utility work > Minor structures and retaining walls > Rehabilitation of existing bridges > Curbs, gutters, sidewalks and driveways > Ducts, conduits, manholes and pull boxes > Pavement markings > Substation sites and catenary pole foundations > Signal case and signal house site work > Aerial Station at Carrollton Square > At-grade stations at Trinity Mills and Frankford Road > Installation of traffic regulatory sign and traffic signals > Building demolition > Park and Ride lots at Stations > Conduits for TVM's > Traction Electrification system > Signals System > Communications Systems > Track Construction > Artwork (TBD) Work Items not included are: > Utility relocations by TXU ELECTRIC, SBC, TXU Gas, TIC Cable and AT&T > Track material procurement > Procurement of bus transit signs > Hazardous material clean up > Traction Power Substations LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 12-2 Revision 3: May 26,2006 > TVM's > Artwork (TBD) 12.2.3 Contracting Process The CM/GC will be procured through the Request for Proposal (RFP) process.

LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 14-13 Revision 2: July 15,2005 15.0 NORTHWEST RAIL OPERATIONS FACILITY (NWROF) Project Manager: Nathan Frumkin Assistant Vice President - Project Engineering: Eduardo Ugarte Assistant Vice President - Construction Management: Diane Gollhofer General Engineering Consultant (GEC): ACT 21 Construction Engineering Manager: Bill Stinson Resident Engineer Manager: TBD CM/GC: TBD 15.1 OVERVIEW The recently completed Phase I build-out of DART's LRT System has expanded, DART'S operations to approximately 44 miles of light rail transit within the cities of Dallas, Garland, Piano and Richardson. The current DART fleet consists of 95 vehicles which are serviced and stored at the Central Rail Operations division consisting of a Service and Inspection (S&l) Facility and a Facilities Maintenance Building (FMB) located at the former 47 acre Santa Fe East Dallas Yard immediately southeast of the Dallas CBD. DART is in the process of design and construction of a super light rail vehicle (SLRV) to provide level boarding. The current fleet will be modified to SLRV's. With the next expansion this facility will accommodate 115 vehicles. The vehicle fleet will expand to 140 SLRV's with the addition of the Southeast and Northwest Corridor lines. The fleet will again expand to 163 SLRV's with the addition of the Irving/DFW and Rowlett lines. With the expansion of the SOC Phase III corridor, the fleet will total approximately 170 SLRV's. Since the current S&l Facility will accommodate 115 vehicles after its expansion, this leaves approximately 55 vehicles to be maintained and stored at the future rail operating facility with the desired plan for expansion of 20 additional vehicles for growth. The event that will create the need for this new facility is the start of operations on the Northwest Corridor to Farmers Branch and Carrollton. A detailed Site Selection Study determined that the new facility should remain adjacent to the Northwest Corridor line and as close as possible to the Irving/DFW branch near Northwest Highway to promote operational efficiencies and to minimize deadhead travel time for Super LRT vehicles. The facility will be designed to accommodate a two story Service and Inspection (S&l) building of 73,000 square feet and a one story Ways Structures Amenities (WSA) building of 38,500 square feet. Rail access to the site will be via a pocket (grade) track between the northbound (elevated) track and the southbound (at grade) track. Yard flow is in a progressive circular pattern with sixteen (16) double-ended storage tracks. Storage capacity of the site will accommodate 75 super LRV's. The site also contains a two-track cleaning platform sized for 3-car super LRV's, a vehicle washer and a non-revenue (rubber tire) washing station. The S&l building will have four tracks for periodic maintenance that can accommodate two super LRV's per track. A fifth track will be for wheel truing. On-site parking will accommodate approximately 200 private vehicles and 30 DART vehicles mostly located near the main gate to decrease the frequency of cross circulation with the yard rail tracks.

LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 16-6 Revision 2: July 15,2005 17.0 ART AND DESIGN PROGRAM Project Manager: Craig King Assistant Vice President - Project Engineering: Eduardo Ugarte General Engineering Consultant: ACT 21 Construction Coordinator: TBD Contractors: TBD 17.1 OVERVIEW The Art and Design program requires that artists, architects, landscape architects, and engineers collaborate throughout the initial phase of the design of each station, along with the input of site specific (neighborhood) committees, in order to integrate and incorporate materials selection, colors, patterns, landscaping, spatial considerations, and overall design approach to produce an artistic contextual identity for each station. Initially, DART engineering staff and the systemwide artist consultant review the stations or facilities at the preliminary level of design to recommend art opportunities with a systemwide approach. Engineering staff will supervise the identification of potential art projects and assist in the identification of areas where art could be used to provide successful environmental mitigation. At the final design level, the Design Artist working in collaboration with the Architect, Engineer and Landscape Architect along with the Site Specific Community Committee provides integration of artistic expression into certain design elements of each station. The task of creating a unique and site-specific station through the use of materials, colors and patterns is accomplished with the finished budget assigned to each individual station. After final design and once the Site Specific Committee select the site or location for the commissioned art piece, a commissioned Artist is selected. The commissioned art piece is in direct response to the "Artistic Value Statement" prepared during the final design. A selection panel made up of members from the design team and members from the sitespecific community committees selects the commissioned art piece. The selection of this artwork is based on artistic qualifications only and not on price. The commissioned piece is based on the art budget for each individual station. DART engineering staff coordinates all artists, the design consultants, construction Contractors and other DART staff to ensure the successful integration of the Art and Design Program and Art Project in the overall facility, design schedule, construction schedule and budget. 17.2 DESIGN PARTICIPANTS The Station Design Artist under the technical supervision of the GEC and DART's Project Manager performs the work pertaining to the Art and Design Program.

(The DART Board initially appoints Art Advisory Committee members for a twoyear term; and committee members nominate and approve replacements). 17.2.2 The Systemwide Lead Artist Consultant assists the Project Manager in the implementation of the DART Art and Design Program by providing an artist's perspective and vision from the conceptual station design phase through the final design phase of all stations. The systemwide lead artist consultant shall: Participate in the preliminary design of station elements and develop possible systemwide opportunities for art that will maximize the effectiveness of the finished budget, along with the public art budget through the integration of art with sitespecific architecture and landscape design. Recruit new local artist for the role of station artist and provide guidance and direction to artist during final design phase. Assist each station design artist in the involvement and implementation of the design process of each station by identifying art opportunities and addressing specific community concerns. Participate as a member of the Art Advisory Committee and assist in general presentations about the Art and Design Program. Assist in the commissioning of art projects during the solicitation process by serving as advisory and/or voting member in selection panels. 17.2.3 The Site Specific Committee is comprised entirely of residents, educators, neighborhood representatives or business people from the adjacent area in which a facility is located. (Site-specific committee is selected by DART Community Affairs, the Station Design Artist and approved by DART staff). 17.2.4 The Station Design Artist provides input into the design of each station/site in an effort to better reflect the Site Specific Art Committee's input. The Section Design Artist is responsible for: LRT Build-Out Phase II-A Project Management Plan 17-2 Revision 2: July 15,2005 Working as part of the Section Design Team as a collaborator in the design of that specific station/facility in order to achieve a unique and community based station design.
