Design West Engineering is in the midst of providing MEP, Fire Protection, Technology and Utility Coordination design for the Skagit Transit Maintenance and Operations facility in Burlington, WA, encompassing two concurrent phases (II and III).
In Phase II, detailed plans include administration spaces, featuring offices, restrooms, conference rooms, and a break room with a kitchenette on the second floor. The design also incorporates a canopy along the north and northeast elevations, a new standby generator, and upgraded electrical service and transformers. Façade improvements adhere to WSEC Code Update requirements, focusing on the north and west façades. Site lighting design is provided for staff and public parking areas, along with entry plazas.
Phase III concentrates on the Building B Fuel and Wash Building, providing complete design development (DD) drawings outlining the preliminary program requirements. The maintenance and operations spaces west of the demising wall receive comprehensive electrical, HVAC, and plumbing design. Additionally, the design addresses the remainder of the canopy on the north elevation and the performance design of the fire sprinkler system for the building west of the demising wall. Site considerations include utilities and zero-emission bus (ZEB) infrastructure planning for electric vehicle (EV) and photovoltaic (PV) systems. The North Parcel Site focuses on dry utilities and EV infrastructure planning.
