The design team has been selected for the George Massey Tunnel replacement project near Vancouver, BC, the Journal of Commerce reported.
Cross Fraser Partnership has been identified as the preferred proponent, according to the report. The team consists of Bouygues Construction Canada Inc., Fomento de Construcciones y Contratas Canada Ltd., Pomerleau BC Inc. and Arcadis Canada Inc.
The Fraser River Tunnel Project includes a new, eight-lane immersed tube tunnel that will replace the existing George Massey Tunnel on Highway 99. The new tunnel will have three vehicle lanes and a dedicated transit lane in each direction, with a separated active transportation corridor for cyclists and pedestrians.
The $4.15 billion (CAN) project will be delivered through a collaborative Progressive Design-Build with Target Price model that will ensure early contractor involvement through a Design Early Works Agreement (DEWA) and effective and manageable risk allocation in the final Design-Build Agreement (DBA).
