Canada

We have contributed to major infrastructure projects across Canada since the 1940's. Across the country, our teams are on the cutting edge of infrastructure engineering, and have helped design and build many of the country's well-known landscapes, including the Regina Bypass, Turcot Exchange, Kicking Horse Canyon, Olivier-Charbonneau Bridge, Gordie Howe International Bridge, Highway 401, Gardiner Expressway Rehabilitation Project, Highway 400 & Major Mackenzie Drive, and La Fontaine Tunnel. Our experts have also worked with transit agencies around the country, helping the Toronto Subway, GO Transit network, Vancouver SkyTrain and the Edmonton Light Rail Transit improve mobility in their communities.

We deliver innovative solutions across the country, helping local, regional, and provincial governments enhance mobility, connect communities, restore the environment, and develop sustainable and resilient infrastructure.

Our Canada team works across multiple provinces with engineers, project controllers, architects, technical staff, and project management professionals located in Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, Northwest Territories, and the Yukon.

We deliver domain expertise across multiple disciplines, including:

Design Build and Alternative Methods (P3s)
Project Delivery, Program, Project and Construction Management
Consulting and Planning
Environmental Planning, Diligence and Renewal
Operations and Maintenance

Aviation

Our experts are passionate about aviation and committed to collaborating with clients to develop solutions to even the toughest challenges. More than 450 airports in 40 countries have relied on us to plan, design, construct, manage, enhance, and sustain terminal, landside, and airside infrastructure.

Rail And Transit

We are recognized leaders in rail and transit infrastructure design, linear infrastructure, and construction services. Pairing our unique expertise with innovative technology, as well as systems engineering and integration experience, we ensure the most effective and cost-efficient project design, construction, and operational capabilities over planned facility life cycles.

Bridges

Bridges can enrich skylines and provide efficient transportation. Our bridge experts meet our customer’s challenges, offering seismic analysis, bascule bridges, and tunnel consulting. We are trailblazers in accelerated bridge design and delivery, and have contributed to design, construction, maintenance, and evaluation for many of Canada’s notable landmark bridges.

Roads And Highways

Our road and highway projects crisscross the country and circle the globe. Far from simply moving people from place to place, our smart corridors help move people into the future. From traditional to integrated delivery methods, our expertise encompasses all phases of engineering operations, from initial planning through final design, tendering, and construction.

Mining And Reclamation

We have completed hundreds of decommissioning, decontamination, and demolition projects – delivering on the needs of mine owners and operators once extraction is complete. With our technical expertise, innovative technology, and safety culture, we deliver safe, effective, and environmentally sustainable solutions.

Smart Vehicle Solutions

Our smart vehicle experts provide provinces and municipalities with the technology they need to maintain safety and emissions inspection systems with front- and back-office solutions. Our cybersecurity expertise complements these capabilities to protect the data being gathered.

Tunnels

We plan, design, engineer, build, and manage complex tunnel projects including large underground transit systems, sewers and pipelines, water and wastewater infrastructure, and hydroelectric projects, even in challenging geologic environments. We utilize 3D modeling, BIM, and conventional and machine-bored tunneling.

Environmental

As a one-stop-shop environmental services provider, we carry remediation programs from initial assessment and design through closure and long-term operations and maintenance, helping our customers comply with regulations and manage risks throughout.

Smart Mobility

As a leader in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), we provide smarter transportation management solutions, including the Ontario COMPASS Traffic Management System, and help cities deploy connected and automated vehicles while managing the data, communication networks, cybersecurity, and electrification systems to make them possible.

Water And Wastewater

As a full-service partner in implementing conventional and advanced water and wastewater treatment technologies, we help our clients through their water management challenges with custom-tailored solutions to help sustainably meet the needs of a growing population. Our expertise in program and construction management and engineering have helped us transform the industry and deliver on complex projects.

The Gordie Howe cable-stayed bridge our team is working on will have a clear span of 853 meters over the Detroit River, giving it the longest main span of any cable-stayed bridge in North America.

All smiles from our Toronto Early Career Development group! The team went out to see the Blue Jays play last week for some team-building.

Our team completed the annual bridge inspection of the Thousand Islands Crossing to Canada. This significant project stands tall and robust for almost 100 years and it is very difficult not to admire the engineering and detailing that has been applied to make this possible. Our engineer had to reach the top of the tower and walk the cable in order to fully inspect the structure.
