Bellevue-based NW Signal Maintenance recently won a Project Excellence Award from the National Electrical Contractors Association for its work on the Northgate Link light rail extension project.

NW Signal Maintenance won in the Transportation & Infrastructure category. For the Sound Transit light rail project, NW Signal Maintenance executed various transit radio communications work orders, a turnkey cell phone distributed antenna system, and vibration detection and wheel flat detection systems. The company also installed trackway art in a train station.

Much of the work took place inside 3.5-mile twin bore tunnels, each with only a single entry point. The result was no call backs and zero lost time incidents.

NW Signal Maintenance was founded in 2010 and primarily maintains and installs protected railroad signal crossings in western Washington. In 2016, current owner Kevin Kucera purchased the company and expanded into the electrified transit rail field. Since then, it opened a Bay Area office and added under-bridge inspection truck services.
