Florida Transportation Builders Association
The Collage Companies is a member of the Florida Transportation Builders Association – Florida’s Voice for the Transportation Construction Industry. For more than 75 years, FTBA’s members have consisted of individuals and business firms actively engaged in the construction of transportation systems or in the furnishing materials, equipment or services for such construction. Here is a look at some of Collage’s Transportation sector projects:
- The Collage Companies completed the successful historic restoration of the Orlando Amtrak Station, meeting both City of Orlando historic preservation standards and FDOT vertical construction requirements.
- The LYNX Central Station, built to meet increased demand for LYNX service, is located in the bustling heart of Downtown Orlando and has become a significant part of the city’s ever-growing skyline. The $36 million ($20 million main facility construction) facility replaced the existing downtown station and includes an 18,000sq. ft. air-conditioned seating area for riders with 2,400 sq. ft. designed for retail development.
- Amtrak’s station at the Auto-Train’s southern terminus in Sanford, Florida was constructed by Collage with $10.5 million in Recovery Act funding,. The Auto Train, one of Amtrak’s best performing long-distance services, and one of the nation’s most innovative forms of intermodal passenger transportation, transports passenger together with their private automobiles non-stop from Lorton, Virginia (15 miles south of Washington, DC), to Central Florida.
- Collage completed the FDOT (Florida Department of Transportation) parking garage that serves the Kissimmee Intermodal Transportation Center. This four story, 160,000 SF, 400-car facility provides parking for transit riders of SunRail commuter trains and Lynx buses, patrons of Amtrak and Greyhound, and visitors to the Kissimmee Civic Center and Kissimmee Lakefront Park.
