\"warranty<\/a><\/p>\n

When you\u2019re building rapidways for generations to enjoy, it\u2019s important to make sure that the end product is what we want.<\/p>\n

Everything – from the paving stones on the sidewalk, to the glass in the canopies, to the red asphalt – is tested, inspected and verified by qualified engineers with a keen eye for detail. Anything that doesn\u2019t make the grade is placed on a \u201cdeficiencies list\u201d that the builder is responsible to remedy. That\u2019s why you may see occasional construction activity in the first couple of years after infrastructure projects are done.<\/p>\n

Project managers of infrastructure projects call this the warranty work<\/em> phase \u2013 an opportunity to catch any issues so that they can be fixed while the infrastructure is still under warranty. It often takes all the seasons in a full year to see how things weather <\/em>in our climate or perform once in use.<\/p>\n

Much like when you buy a new house, it can take one or two years for the foundations to settle, and for you to make note of where the finishes are less than desirable. Then the contractor comes back to fix all the nail pops and cracks in the drywall, fill any gaps in the molding and repaint where necessary. It ensures that you are happy with the work, and you get the most out of your home. Warranty work is the same idea for our facilities, stations and rapidways.<\/p>\n

On Davis Drive, we\u2019re starting with the grinding and smoothing out of curbs, fixing paint finishes and filling small cracks, and of course taking note of anything else that needs work.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re a regular transit rider, or are considering your first trip on the rapidway, know that we are working hard to provide you with a quality experience and infrastructure that\u2019s built to last.<\/p>\n
