  • The section (awarded by the provincial agencies Infrastructure Ontario and Metrolinx) also includes five above-ground stations.

ACCIONA, in partnership with Canadian firm AMICO, has been selected by the Province of Ontario to design and build a three-kilometer section of the Ontario Line subway in Toronto, Canada.

The section (awarded by the provincial agencies Infrastructure Ontario and Metrolinx) also includes five above-ground stations. On completion of all construction sections, the Ontario Line will extend 15.6 kilometers and have a total of 15 stations.

The new piece of infrastructure will enable travel from one end of the line to the other in under 30 minutes, compared with the current 70 minutes using alternative transportation. It will also considerably alleviate urban congestion, thanks to connections with other metro and bus lines along the route.

The ACCIONA-AMICO consortium has entered into a progressive design and construction contract for the new infrastructure with Metrolinx, the operator of public transportation in the Toronto metropolitan area. The two parties will collaborate to finalize the scope, risk allocation, and pricing of various elements of the contract.

 

KEY MARKET

Canada is a key market for ACCIONA, where it began operations in 2000 to carry out one of the country's most significant hydraulic projects, the Deep Lake Water Cooling, in Toronto.

ACCIONA has participated in other prominent projects such as the construction of Site-C hydroelectric dam (British Columbia), Walterdale Bridge in Edmonton (Alberta), Highway A-30 in Montreal (Quebec); Herb Gray Parkway and Windsor Essex Parkway highways (Ontario) and the South East Stoney Trail highway (Alberta).

The company has also modernized the water distribution system in the city of Saint John (New Brunswick), and, as a member of the Fraser Crossing Partners consortium, ACCIONA is currently working on the construction of the new Pattullo Bridge in the Vancouver metropolitan area (British Columbia).

Furthermore, in consortium with Ghella, it is extending the Broadway Metro, a 5.7-kilometer extension of the Millennium Line in Vancouver, which will add six stations. Currently, the company has offices in the provinces of British Columbia and Ontario.
