| Aecom Technology wins contract for final leg of Edmonton ring road Los Angeles-based engineering giant Aecom Technology Corp announced that it was awarded a design contract for the final leg of Anthony Henday Drive in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The Alberta government signed a 34-year public-private partnership (P3) contract with the Capital City Link General Partnership to design, build, operate and partially finance the highway project. The P3 contract is worth US$1.8 billion. Aecom is the lead designer for the Flatiron-Dragados-Aecon-Lafarge design-build joint venture company. The project includes 17 miles of six- and eight-lane divided roadways, nine interchanges, two road flyovers, eight rail crossings, and 46 bridge structures, including two bridges across the North Saskatchewan River. The ring road, once completed, is designed to reduce commute times and traffic congestion in the area. write your comments about the article :: © 2012 Construction News :: home page |
