Subsidiary of the VINCI Group, VINCI Construction Grands Projets Canada is involved in large-scale construction and civil engineering projects in Canada. The headquarter of VINCI Construction Grands Projets Canada is based in Montréal, Québec. We are currently involved in two major construction projects in Ontario valued at several billion Canadian dollars.

• The construction of the subway line south in Toronto, involving a six‑kilometer tunnel and associated excavation work. The project includes the design, construction, and handover of all tunnels (twin tubes of 6 km each), 7 stations (turnkey for: 1 at‑grade station and 6 underground stations) and civil engineering works.
• Extension of the Confederation Line in Ottawa, one of the components of Phase 2 of the city's O‑Train system, which includes the design, construction, and financing of 27.5 km of light rail infrastructure. The work also includes 4 km of cut‑and‑cover tunnels, 20 engineering structures, 16 stations and a light maintenance facility.
• The Pickering Nuclear Generating Station refurbishment program includes the design and construction of a new deep water intake in Lake Ontario to improve the plant's cooling system. This project will include a 1.5 km long tunnel, excavated by a pressurized tunnel boring machine (10.15 m diameter slurry), two vertical shafts (onshore and offshore), and a modular offshore intake structure, resting on the lakebed. This project is notable for its proximity to an active nuclear site, requiring rigorous standards of safety, planning, and coordination.
