More than two years after losing control of its $3.5-billion Baha Mar resort project, the Bahamas-based developer is suing the project’s contractor.

Legal challenges have once again played havoc with the construction schedule for Maryland’s Purple Line, raising the possibility that the 16-mile light rail system may miss its planned 2022 start-up date according to state transportation officials.

Few industries are as fluid as construction when it comes to teaming up with other companies.

Claiming that the Purple Line is nearing a “crisis point,” Maryland transportation officials have asked a federal appeals court to issue an emergency order allowing construction to begin on the stalled $5.6 billion light-rail project.
