| Aecon to widen Highway 407 northwest of Toronto Aecon Group, Canada's largest publicly traded construction and infrastructure development company, today announced that its Construction and Materials division has been awarded a $49.1 million contract to widen the median of Highway 407 northwest of Toronto between Highway 427 and Highway 401. The project will add two inside lanes along the 27 km stretch from Highway 427 in the east to Highway 401 in the west, expanding the central section of the highway and improving traffic flow during peak hours. This follows a similar project that Aecon completed in 2006 to widen 407 ETR between Highway 427 and Highway 404. Work on the project, which includes a very aggressive schedule and a commitment to minimize traffic disruption as much as possible during construction, is scheduled to be completed in September 2007. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
