The government has completed the procurement phase of the alliance contract for Highway 8 and chose Aecon-Emil Anderson Construction General Partnership with their design partners, Urban Systems and Basis Engineering, to undertake the project, stated a release. Working as an integrated team with the province, design work will start this summer with construction to follow design.
