NJ TRANSIT Walter Rand Transportation Center Improvements

Artheon served as a subconsultant for the NJ TRANSIT Walter Rand Transportation Center Improvements project in Camden, New Jersey, providing comprehensive survey services in support of planned facility upgrades and expansion. The Walter Rand Transportation Center, constructed in 1989 and owned by NJ TRANSIT, is the largest intermodal transportation hub in the City of Camden and a critical node in the regional transit network.

At the time of the project, the facility accommodated twenty-four NJ TRANSIT bus routes, the NJ TRANSIT River LINE light rail, the PATCO Speedline subway, intercity Greyhound bus service, and South Jersey Transportation Authority (SJTA) operations. The project was undertaken to upgrade, enlarge, and modify the transportation center to support increased ridership and the ongoing development renaissance in the City of Camden.

Artheon’s scope included development of base mapping and completion of right-of-way and boundary surveys within the project limits. Our team conducted extensive research of deed records, tax maps, railroad valuation maps, and other property documentation to establish accurate ownership and boundary information. In addition, high-definition scanning technology was utilized to accurately tie above-ground features to the subterranean boarding platform, including the stairway providing access to the platform, ensuring precise integration of existing conditions into the design process.
