Trenton: Pomerleau of Saint-Georges, Quebec, will rehabilitate Dam 1 in Trenton ($30 million) and Dam 3 in Quinte West ($33 million) on the Trent-Severn Waterway (TSW) National Historic Site.
Construction on Dam 1 began in July and Dam 3 will start in August, with both projects expected to be completed in 2022.
Maple CDB had awarded the two projects in April.
Public Services and Procurement Canada awarded construction management contracts to cover four sections of the 386-km waterway system. This will ensure that the dozens of multi-million dollar projects are completed in a timely and fiscally responsible manner.
The joint venture of Maple Reinders and Construction Demathieu & Bard (Maple CDB) was awarded the contract for the southern portion of the projects that extends from Trenton, Ontario, at Lake Ontario to Healey Falls, north of Campbellford.
Maple CDB is managing eight projects valued at $190 million along this stretch of the TSW.
