The Purple Line is a 16-mile light rail line that will extend from Bethesda in Montgomery County to New Carrollton in Prince George’s County, with a total of 21 stations. It will provide a direct connection to suburb-to-suburb rail line in the Washington, D.C. area. The purpose of the $9.5 billion project is to connect neighborhoods, Metro lines, and MARC (Maryland Area Regional Commuter) rail lines in the Baltimore-Washington metro area, and Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor line.
This project was the first user of our InSight technology. The Purple Line uses it for tracking certified payroll data to ensure that all prime contractors and their subcontracting tiers are paying the negotiated wage rates. This payroll data is used to meet the Purple Line’s reporting requirements, with InSight producing the Nationally Targeted Worker and EEO reports for the team.
