Sacramento Republic FC News Release
Sacramento, CALIF. - Sacramento Republic FC today announced the selection of Lund Construction to build the public infrastructure surrounding the Club's new soccer stadium at the Downtown Sacramento Railyards. As part of its agreement with the City of Sacramento, Republic FC is responsible for delivering the streets, utilities, and public amenities that will connect the stadium to the surrounding neighborhood - laying the physical foundation for one of the most transformative developments in the city's history.
Lund Construction's scope of work includes new and improved streets, sidewalks, a paseo, water and sewer infrastructure, storm drain systems, and a new public bike trail. The work will create a connected, walkable public realm around the stadium and provide the backbone infrastructure for the broader buildout of the 31-acre plot that will also include a new neighborhood for the region.
"With groundbreaking behind us, the focus now turns to execution and that's exactly why we chose Lund Construction," said Pegasus Development CEO Art Zargaryan. Pegasus Development is leading the entire project for Wilton Rancheria and Republic FC. "Their decades of experience building infrastructure throughout the region and their firsthand knowledge of this site, make the team at Lund Construction a strong pick to help us accelerate our plans for a transformative neighborhood and stadium project."
"For more than 65 years, Lund Construction Co. has played a meaningful role in shaping the infrastructure of the Sacramento region," said Kevin Lund, president of Lund Construction. "At the heart of our work is a simple belief: strong communities are built by dedicated people. That principle continues to guide everything we do. We are honored to contribute to the future home of Sacramento Republic FC and proud to partner with the Wilton Rancheria Tribe. It is a privilege to help build projects that will serve and strengthen this community for generations to come, and we remain committed to delivering that work with integrity, respect, and lasting pride."
Lund Construction's portfolio throughout the Sacramento area encompasses complex joint trench systems, multi-utility coordination, and large-scale infrastructure delivery, reflecting the technical depth and operational capacity this project requires. Lund Construction has successfully executed a range of projects demonstrating Lund's capability to handle large-scale, high-stakes assignments efficiently. The team's experience includes civil and utility infrastructure work within the Railyards district, navigating the site's distinctive environmental and logistical conditions. That firsthand familiarity with the site's complexities informed the RFP evaluation and distinguished the Lund Construction team.
Republic FC's new downtown home will be the biggest pro sports and entertainment venue in the region, and will serve as the anchor for a new neighborhood that will help double the size of Downtown. Vertical construction on the site will begin later this year, with the stadium on track to open in 2028.
