As part of the contract, Aecon will extend and strengthen existing runways, taxiways and aprons, as well as upgrade the runway lighting. Expansion of groundside development lots, roadways and associated infrastructure will also be completed.
This redevelopment project is slated to enable the Peterborough Airport to improve its ability for continued growth by expanding the airport’s capacity. Construction on the project begins in August 2010 and is scheduled for completion in March 2011.
Aecon Construction and Materials Limited (ACML) is managing the design build contract and is performing the grading drainage and asphalt paving scope of work. A number of Aecon Infrastructure business units will perform work on the project: AME is responsible for quality control and testing of the works, Miwel will perform some of the sanitary sewer and water main construction, and AGI Traffic Technology alongside Tristar will perform all of the electrical upgrades and specialized airport lighting work.
