The PERI Extended Experience app delivered 3D visualization of the project with augmented and virtual reality. The customer was able to track all information about the project using myPERI, a 24/7 customer portal enabling tracking of orders, viewing reports, drawings, and more. Travel Time Concrete construction utilizing PERI solutions began in August 2021 and is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2022. The Au- tomated People Mover is expected to begin serving travelers in 2023.

Each of the four spans has 13 to 17 segments of 15-feet and closure pours at the midspan. The PERI VARIOKIT system reduces construction with high load- bearing capacity, integrated hydraulics, and safe access solutions. With VARIOKIT, crews can transfer fresh concrete loads into the supporting structure and move formwork from section to section more easily. Four 80-foot-tall stair towers of PERI UP Flex Stair Tower were also used to access formwork areas. PERI UP steel staircase system is designed for loads of 3.00 kN/m2 with wide steps the staircase is suited for large numbers of users to pass each other and transport material safely. To aid in planning each segment solution, PERI software including structural and static analysis, PERI CAD 23 , and PERI Extended Ex- perience were used to bring the design to life and ensure all necessary components were ready on time. PERI CAD, ideal for experienced CAD engineers and construction professionals in formwork and scaffolding planning, enabled detailed plans of the structures, assembly drawings, and 3D drawing details, providing cost reduction with accurate quantity planning.
