Jacobs is delivering one of the Los Angeles metropolitan region’s most complex and transformative infrastructure projects — the LA Metro D Line Subway Extension Project – Section 1. The expansion will connect downtown Los Angeles to the Westside for the first time in history, reducing congestion and linking riders to the city’s cultural, economic and medical hubs.
Jacobs is serving as program manager for a visionary water reuse project in southern California that will create a resilient drinking water supply and protect the local ecosystem.
As part of the Environment Agency's Incident Response Contract in the Southeast (Hub C), Jacobs, in collaboration with BAM, led emergency works to stabilize Black Potts Weir. The effort protected the weir’s structural integrity, ensured continued operation of the Jubilee flood relief channel and safeguarded critical rail infrastructure.
Jacobs played a central role in the once-in-a-generation transformation of Seattle’s downtown shoreline, delivering both design and construction management across more than 14 projects — from the Elliott Bay Seawall and Main Corridor to the award-winning Overlook Walk and family-friendly Pier 58 and Pier 62 — creating a vibrant, accessible and climate-ready waterfront that connects and welcomes people to Puget Sound like never before.
To serve more than 730,000 residents, the City of Tampa and Jacobs delivered a major upgrade to the city’s only drinking water facility while maintaining continuous service. Using a progressive design-build approach, the team modernized aging infrastructure; increased capacity, flexibility, reliability and resiliency; improved water quality and introduced first-of-its-kind innovations like a zero-discharge stormwater system.
The Anacostia Waterfront Initiative is a $10 billion, 30-year effort to transform Washington, D.C.’s riverfront, led by the District Department of Transportation with Jacobs as Program Management/General Engineering Consultant. The program focuses on improving transportation connections between neighborhoods and the waterfront, advancing environmentally resilient infrastructure to restore ecosystems and manage flooding, and driving economic growth through collaboration among agencies, federal partners and developers.
Jacobs is supporting MTA’s rollout of New York City’s new contactless fare system, replacing the MetroCard with smartcard and mobile payment options. The next-generation system enhances convenience, supports regional transit connections and prepares the city for a seamless, digital travel experience.
The Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is known for its celebrity sightings and VIP experiences. Through their partnership Jacobs and LAWA work together to make every passenger feel like a superstar.
