FOR RAIL AND METRO OWNERS AND CONTRACTORS
Optimize rail and metro construction with generative construction technology
Linear, complex, multi-faceted rail and metro projects have plenty of opportunity for optimization with ALICE's AI-powered generative construction scheduling technology.
Win more profitable rail and metro bids
Model construction sequences around track possessions, station phasing, and tunneling methods to build credible, detailed schedules that help you win profitable tenders.
Make every possession window count
Reduce risk on complex, multi-interface projects
Coordinate civils, track, signaling, and systems work in one optimized schedule, and automatically generate recovery schedules when a missed possession or late approval threatens delays.
Some threats to a rail or metro schedule are visible from day one: long-lead signaling, traction power and special trackwork, possession windows booked months in advance, stations and line sections handed over in stages, and crews competing for limited site access. ALICE lets you model these and test recovery options before they hit.

Some risks never show up in your status report. Preferential logic, untested sequences, near-critical systems work, and crew conflicts across possessions add time. ALICE surfaces and solves them early.

Traditional scheduling gives you one plan. With ALICE, you can rapidly explore feasibly alternatives, each with its own time, cost, and resource profile.

“ALICE has allowed us to be more competitive in the bid and more efficient during the project's execution.”
The City of Edmonton, Canada planned to expand its public transportation system with the construction of the Valley Line West light rail extension. This 8.7-mile rail extension includes 14 street-level stations and two elevated stations, with the project estimated to cost $2.6 billion in total.
Parsons used ALICE to help it develop a competitive construction schedule in its bid for the project.
