Concrete Builds All Forms of Urban Transit
Concrete is an integral component in the construction of public transit. Due to its superior strength, durability, versatility, economy and availability, concrete is commonly used in the construction of transit guideways, subways, stations, maintenance and ancillary facilities that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Regardless of mode, virtually every facet of modern transportation features concrete as the principal construction material.
