The Pomona Precast Train Station is a proposed Metro stop along the existing Riverside Metrolink Line. This station would be used by the local residents as well as the thousands of students that are enrolled in Cal Poly Pomona, Mt. SAC, and Devry Universities. The use of precast concrete pieces throughout the station helps keep the cost of construction down along with creating a permanent, long lasting structure. The station is designed using eleven precast concrete pieces to construct the walls and floor, including a beam designed to support the structure. The precast pieces and the construction were consulted on by engineers of Coreslab Structures leading to the design being constructible as well as redesigning the conventional ideas of what precast concrete pieces can be.
