We are currently involved in three major construction projects in Canada and the United States, valued at several billion Canadian dollars.

• The Louis-Hippolyte La Fontaine Bridge-Tunnel Project includes a major structural overhaul, modernization of operating equipment, and redesign of service corridors, as well as the addition of fire protection. In addition to the tunnel work, the project also includes the construction of 25 kilometres of preferential traffic measures on Highway 20 to the Richelieu River, the reconstruction of Highway 25 concrete slabs in two directions (a total of 13 km of roadway), and structural repairs to the Souligny Interchange.

• The Confederation Line extension to Ottawa is a component of Phase 2 of the city's O-Train system, which includes the design, construction, and financing of a 27.5-kilometre light rail infrastructure. The work also includes 4 kilometres of cut-and-cover tunnels, 20 engineering structures, 16 stations, and a light maintenance facility.
