AVA’s Role
Anil Verma Associates, Inc. (AVA) is part of RailPros’ Design team contracted by the City of Santa Clarita to design a new station at the Vista Canyon master plan community. AVA provided station architectural, lighting, signage, and landscape design, as well as Mechanical, Plumbing, and Electrical engineering.
Description
AVA is designing a new commuter rail station to serve as an anchor for the new transit oriented community of Vista Canyon located in Santa Clarita. The design of the plaza space and trail systems are intended to connect to a new bus transit station and adjacent residential, office, and retail. As one of the first location in California where gold was found occurred near the station, the design character reflects a gold strike theme as well as California rustic detailing reflecting the surrounding master plan community. As part of changing to a double track project, a center platform has been designed including canopies, ramps and stairs, and accessed by a pedestrian underpass. The entrance plaza, site lighting, landscape design, and drainage was also included. AVA provided Architectural, Landscape, MEP, and LEED Compliance services. AVA is preparing paperwork for the station in anticipation to submit for a gold LEED rating.
